light weight 18x12 wheel options?
what are our options for light weight 18x12? i know the z06 replica wheels seem pretty heavy..besides that it looks like the Weld wheels are a good option but VERY expensive.
im looking to replace my 19x12" 345 nt05R combo with something in an 18x12 so i can run 345 MT's..

The TSW Nurburgrings are pretty light.
Weight
18x9.0 = 20.5 lbs
19x10.5 = 23.25 lbs
Don't know if they offer the size you're looking for but I'm sure you can contact C5 BearsFan to see.
I know I've seen really light wheels mentioned here over the years but anything under 20 lbs is going to be really expensive from what I remember.

these seem REALLY good value and they look good. $1.3k for the set doesn't seem half bad. you'd be able to fit 275 on the front, so they seem perfect for the vette :P
