Hey fellow track rats! I'm looking for some wheels that are 18x 10 +50 offset, 5-114.3 bolt pattern for my track only FD. I run 285/30 18's on all corners. I have 2-sets of Mustang knock-off wheels made by Replica but they are heavy as hell
and have alot of rotating mass. In my searches I have found some more Mustang type wheels that are of that size with a +48 offset (probably close enough). These
wheels weigh 24 lbs. That sounds pretty heavy to me. Any suggestions would be great. I would like to just bite the bullet and get a set of CCW's; but they don't suit
my low rent budget. What would be considered a good average wheel weight? I
would also consider some used CCW's if anyone has a set in the corner of the
garage. Road rash is not a problem; as long as they are straight and will balance.

Cheers!

 

What's your budget?

 

24lbs for an 18x10 doesn't sound all that bad to me

Corvettes/Camaros run that size/offset but you'd have to get a set in the right bolt pattern (easy to order with knock off wheels) or get a set re-drilled.

C5Z's are 18x10.5 and weigh 21lbs.

Not sure how "economical" that would be.

 

my Enkei RPF1s are 18x10.5 and 19 lbs... 24 isn't terrible.

 

Hey Pete,
The wheels I found +48 offset were $154.00 each. Thats' a far cry from $675.00
each for CCW's. I'm also going back to Kumho V 710's for my tires. The BFG R1's
take too long to heat up and don't have near the grip as the V 710's. You have a set
of CCW's?

 

I looked and looked at Enkei but couldn't find them with the +50 offset. I'll post up
the wheels I was considering. Cheers!

These are the wheels I was considering.

 

SERIOUSLY.........LOL

You're driving a 150 mph open your wallet and get some forged aluminum wheels for christ sake hehe

 

Here are your track wheels you cheap old bastard : https://www.rx7club.com/ne-sale-want.../#post11439603

 

I never denied the cheap bastard part; but did you have to throw in the "old" ****?
LOL. I guess I am a grand dad x2, that prolly qualifies.

 

Hey brother it takes one to know one

PS I want my axles and spindles

 

These are aluminum BTW...HeHe

 

I'll bring em to the FSR event you cheap young bastard...

 

How are you able to run the 15 offset? Are you running 285/30's?
Thanks for your input.

Fritz,
I pm'd the guy with the Enkei's on the forum; haven't heard back. Will a 9.5"
with a 45 offset still work with 285/30's?

 

I thought they were steel jk.... but are they cast spun forged put through blender and microwaved........i don't think so at 200 a pop

Seriously you should grab those RP01s at 500 that's a damn good deal.

 

I'd probably go 275 35

Hoosier R6

 

I have a widebody FC... I wasn't implying that you should buy a set, I was merely giving you a data point for how heavy a really light 18 was going to be.

 

Good deal. Thanks for responding. I just couldn't find the size I wanted in Enkei.
I was hoping I missed something. Cheers!
