thats the way I'm going also... and they are pretty light too I think... who cares about how they look at the track IMO... as long as you are hooking up good and running the time

for weight, these are 16x12's that weigh about 17lbs each, however they are made to only go straight

they also had the all black steel wheels, they were the same price and weight 10lbs more each.... I dont care how they look at the track either but its what they have...
