Where can I pick up Track Wheels?

I need a set of dedicated track wheels to upgrade my garage. 18" is likely the smallest I can go with those massive Stoptech's on the car.

Is there any where in DFW where I can look for a set of used wheels?

A new set of Enkeis (RPF-1 or NT-03) is likely the same cost as a used set unless you find some OEM wheels that work (but so skinny!).

There was a guy on DI (DallasImports) selling RPFs basically at cost over the winter. He's a sponsor now there, H&H.

Another guy on the FS forums there is selling some Rota Boosts. (he has 8 of them, so 1 set staggered, 1 set not staggered)

Edit: also watch sccaforums.com and nasaforums.com. The G bolt pattern is very common (Z [obv.], Evo, STI, Mustang all are the same bolt pattern). The only issue will be the offset.

Yeah, I need to do some research in that department.

9" wide would be minimum. Probably 9 front and 9.5 rear would work really well.

I went with Enkei rpf1's 9.5 up front, and 10. 5 in the rear. no rubbing, plenty of rubber.

Wait, I just remembered you aren't FI, so you might not need that much rubber. But The Enkei's are a great deal as far as price and weight go.

I don't think we've fully established that yet.

NASA TT in a couple weeks? Although it's been over a year since I've been on MSR-C.

Sorry, trying to get my wallet and car in shape for something after April.

Those Enkei's look like a good deal. Need to cruise the wheels forum to see if there is any dealbreakers. 18x8.5 +30 Front and 18x9.5 +38 Rear with 255x45R18 and 275x45R18 looks like a good setup. The biggest worry will be fitting the 6-POT stoptechs inside the rim.
