What are the lightest skateboard wheels on the market today?



A friend of mine that rides for Almost skateboards just hooked me up with this new deck by Rodney Mullen that is supposed to be the lightest skateboard ever made. I went and bought the lightest trucks on the market too by Thunder. They are made of titanium. So I’m just trying to put together the lightest board I can possibly put together just for fun and to see how it skates.
I’m just wondering if anyone knows the lightest wheels on the market as well..
Thanks!

    you are gettin to the last detail on this weight issue aren’t you buddy, haha. Allright so you know about dual durometer wheels? with the hard core and softer outside. Well a couple brand’s make these where the core actually has airholes in them! Get those and stay small, that’s the way but in my opinion I wouldn’t go any smaller than 50mm (but i don’t think you’d find any of these air cores any smaller)

    Try element. I got element wheels 50mm and they’re light enough.
