call! Brad can get most anything, and His prices are lower than most, far from retail. thats who I buy from, I bought a set of Carrazerria (sp) wheels for $1300 tmd.

BST is the lightest money can buy.
Carrozzerias are the cheapest aftermarket option in forged aluminum.
More $$$ and you're looking at forged magnesium- $2-3K.
Still though- BST is lighter and more expensive than any magnesium wheels.
Call Brock's for a price quote- depends what you needs are.

BST comparison to stock, by my scales:
Stock wheels:
Front 11.6 lbs.
Rear 19.5 lbs.
BST weight savings over stock:
Front 5 lbs 9 oz.
Rear 8 lbs. 7 oz.
These numbers could be off by a few ounces, but you get the idea.

I'll just add that lighter brake rotors and an aluminum rear sprocket will
knock some more weight off. Titanium sprocket and rotor bolts also-
as long as you can justify the $$$ for the marginally small reduction with them.

Ninjaboy311, how much better E/T and or MPH did the Galespeeds give you?
Shane, how much better E/T and or MPH did the BSTs give you?
I know this is not an apples to apples comparision but just tring to get an idea of the bang for the buck in an1/8 and 1/4 mile setting over stock wheels.
Thank for any and all replies,

I don't know; they are just one part of the whole package. Between my bike and myself, I dropped about 70 lbs. over the winter. It's hard to compare apples to apples, but I was able to run essentially the same ET on a 1.65 60 ft. as I did on a 1.49-1.51 60 ft. last year (at the same wheelbase).
If all you do is change wheels, I'm betting .10 or less in ET improvement.

Not much difference with my Galespeeds. I bought mine for the looks, so they aren't the lightest available from Galespeed. I've made lots of changes over the years.
Ran 9.05 Saturday night on 87 pump gas, 80 degrees and 3000 ft density altitude. This winter is going to be interesting. Could be setting some personal bests in a few months.
