anyone have a good idea of a light wheel set for slopestyle strong but light?

a weight on the wheels would be handy to compare

Hope Pro 2s with Sun S.O.S. / Funn Xlrator

light and quite strong. it's always gonna be a strength compromise going for 'lighter' wheels though.

or go tubeless......that helps.
