Anyone know what the lightest 18" wheel on a Mustang is that would fit on a non Brembo 2017 GT?

I am trying to setup a drag strip wheel package. I have a set of 17" wheels for the rear that I will run drag radials on, 245/45/17 for now, eventually 275/40/17.

Ideally I would like to get 4 18" wheels to drive to the track with and then only swap out the rears at the track. I'd likely run a 225/45/18 all around and only to drive to and from the track with those, swapping back my 19s for daily driving.

My stock 19s are 27" tall and the size of drag radials I want to run are 26" so I'd like to try and match the front diameter and running a skinnier tire than my stock 255s.

Thanks in advance.

“OEM Dark Stainless Painted Aluminum 19" x 8.5" Wheel w/ Tire: 57.6 lbs” is that for 2 wheels?
