I currently have 16's that I use for drag racing. I have a Wilwood brake set up so that is going to bump me up to 17's as far as I know. I already have every day wheels that will clear the brakes. I need to find a pair of 17's to put some slicks on. I am looking for something at least 8" wide and probably some where around a +35 offset. Under $200 a wheel is where I would like to be. Any suggestions?

MB Motorsports Competition or Weapon. I bought a set of MB comps about a year ago for $110 each at Discount for a 17x8 +25. they weigh ~17lbs each. not bad for a cheap wheel.



or go with the classic 5Zigen FN01R-C. about $175 each and same weight.

I'll look into those, I would probably try to find a little bit higher offset to pull them in a few more mm.

I just sold a set of 17x9's that were +43. I would have kept them if the offset was lower. I did not want to have to run a set of spacific spacers on a set up that does not get used that often.

Do you know of any sites that specalize in light weight racing wheels? I am lost with out edgeracing

what about Enkei RPF1?

they have 17x8 +35 and is only 15lbs!

the only thing is they may be a little more expensive than $200

yeah I know about those and I like the wheels, the only thing is last time I checked they are no where close to $200. If for some reason you run across a pair then please post up.

for your size the cheapest i could find was $238 but if you find any lower call http://www.gruppe-s.com/index.htm and tell them that price and they should price match or go lower for you.


also found these for $215 (sorry hard to find a 17 inch wheel for under 200.

they run about 19.8 lbs and have a 33 or 38 ofsfet

Sorry missed that.
Straightening is usually $100 or so, not worth it for these.

tirerack has great closeouts right now. I think i saw kosei's for $60. those are light wheels.. just dont look under maximas, search under anything that has 5x114.3 with proper center bore and go from there..... thats like z/g/mustang/s2000/rx8/supra/rx7/etc...

Some Motegi Racing's are cheap and light like 17 lbs for 17's and19lbs for 18's on the SP10 model that I like that can bust for track and DD so many tire shops out here like 75 bucks a tire or set of 4 for like 225 or 250 not G *** hell tires but to get the job done I guess like D' centi or something!!
