18" track wheel recommendation for 997

I will be shopping soon for some new track/street wheels for my 997S.

Looking at: 18x9 & 18x11 or 11.5

I buy buy based on:

1. Weight (Under 20# front & 21# Rear) Has to be lighter than stock.

2. Quality

3. Price

I'm trying to stay under $2500.

My current options are:

CCW C10
OZ Allegrita HLT

I would love a set of AMT's but they are too much for me to spend now.


I'm also thinking of picking up a used set if anyone has one for sale.

I am looking for same (though for a 996 widebody). I haven't found a confirmed weight on the OZ wheels yet. Anyone?

Have you considered the TR Motorports wheels -- though I just noticed they are not at TireRack any longer. They are forged and light.

Sharkwerks has a really nice set of Fikse Profil 13's that would work great!
Look under the parts section here.

I have Volk TE37s and they are very light. I think Tirerack says the 18x11 rear is 20.5 lbs. Very strong.
