Tim,
If you're looking for some really light wheels, give these a try:

The Dave Brown wheels are OK, but they tend to go flat. The "LYT" ones from Hobby Lobby are much stiffer. I have a few sets that are over 2 years old - still going strong. I DO glue the tires to the wheels with Zap-A-Dap-A-Goo however.

Whatever happened to your "Notes to Self"? That was good stuff!

Actually the Dubro Super Lites are the best way to go to save weight. Tried the HL LYT and find these better all around
