Im in the process of buying some wheels for my '83 CSP RX7. I'm pretty
sure I'm going with a 13x9. Now I've narrowed my choice to 2:

1. Keizer's:
13x9 Aluminum
8.5 lb.
3 piece
~$175 each

2. Real Racing Wheels (R&S Racing)
13x9 Aluminum
11.2 lb.
2 piece
~$164 each

The difference in weight is a no brainer. However I'm slightly concerned
with the strength. I've heard that you can bend a Keizer Wheel when
mounting tires if your not careful. I will be using Hoosier 225/45/13's.
FWIW R&S also sells Hoosier's and will mount and balance them for free.
I would appreciate any comments from anybody who has experience with
either of these wheels. Any comments will be appreciated.
