2) Wrap them in some GOOD rubber. NO CRAPPY CHEAP TIRES, you'll be sorry if you do.
Hope that helped a lil, lol. You gotta narrow the field a lil when asking such a question. Personally, I'm partial to the ROTA SlipStream's. (11 lbs. a piece, and they look decent. Rota makes some good lookin' rims, at a fair price, check them out.)
Read this first before you do something stupid like buy 17" rims and race on them. I already did it, thats why I can call it stupid.
Also take into account that the average 17" tire is something like $130. You can buy a 15" tire for about $70-80 and a 16" tire for about 90. You will be killing a tire in 1 season. Plan on buying shitloads of them.
You don't need forged featherweights. Something like a Rota, Konig or the Team Dynamics Pro-Race wheels are popular with the autocross crowd cuz they're light strong and cheap enough that if you trash one, you can get another and not break the wallet.

Lee, I meant THIS autox forum. You put it in wheels, tires and brakes, which is fine, but we have the autox forum here so we can talk about things like this.
