If you're extending your budget go for Ultraleggeras.

Never been a fan of Oz wheels. Still prefer 1.2.

For a comparison:

OZ Ultraleggera - 8 x 17 - 7.74 kgs
OZ Alleggerita - 8 x 17 - 6.40 kgs
TD Prorace 1.2 - 8 x 17 - 9.00 kgs
Compomotive MO6 - 8 x 17 - 10.91 kgs

I only used 17's as a comparison, as the weights are not listed for the 18" Alleggerita's.

Why not save yourself a load of money and just get the original rims done in black? IMO They looked better than the TD rims.

The original rims are rubbish, but they do look better in black. Only cos its harder to see them though.

Standard rims look crap and I don't like them in black at all, makes them even worse

They are functional wheels, but look gash.

Olly, I know the standard wheels are meant to be lightweight, but do you know the weight of the rims? Just out of interest, that's all.
