Looking for opinions on wheels

I'm prepping a dirt bike for street and track. Not wanting to go tubeless so not wanting supermoto wheels. Looking for lightweight and relatively low cost 17-inch wheels. So far the RC390 wheels are looking like the best option. Questions: Does anyone know of any big negatives to the RC390 wheels? Any other make of wheels potentially a better choice? Any particular year to year differences I might need to know about?
Thanks.

Thanks for that info. Didn't know. Any suggestions to an OE competitor that may be lighter?
Marchesini makes some forged aluminum wheels for the RC390 which are much lighter. I believe BST and maybe boost also make carbon fiber wheels for it.

Which dirt bike are you doing this to? I have a similar project and would like to find out the RC390 wheel specs (e.g. axle diameter, width, disc offset) to see if I can put the Marchesinis on my dirt bike...
