You can’t go wrong with either though. You’re getting a quality product from very reputable brands. My advice would be to just pick which ever looks better to you lol $400 is a big difference though. Could go to your tires |

Sadly there is no race tracks where I live, but we have drift track that I'll be going to in the future. Yes there is so shitty roads where I live.
Tbh I was all about the 5 spoke design from the GL 57CR until I saw the TC105N but as you said the 400$ can go into a better set of wheels. But again if the TC105N are way more durable than the 57CR the the 400$ extra is worth it to me. Btw what's the difference between the TC105N and TC105X. Thanks again.

https://www.vividracing.com/blog/wed...-need-to-know/ Honestly can’t speak on the durability as I’ve never owned either. Never drifted either, but I imagine you don’t need the grippiest/highest quality tires. However, I know they do a lot more work on the suspension of the car so just keep everything in mind when making your purchases. |

TC105x, they made it stronger and lighter, which is hard to do with the same aluminum and wheel mfg process. If you want a set, hit me up, I will get you a smoking deal. |

Anybody know if the TC105N's are still available? I know they're not the newest version, but I like the way the look better.

What's the best compromise regarding tire sizing between grip and weight for FI cars with these wheels in this specific size? I'm currently running 18x9.5 with 255 section tires, and while I love the look, I'm really starting to feel the weight affecting acceleration and ride quality, so I'm thinking about switching to this wheel in the spring. I'm planning to go FI in the future however, so I want to have a good contact patch without adding needless weight to the tire. So what do people reckon the perfect tire size for that application would be? 245? 255?

If you're going F1 I would wait and see how it feels with your existing tire combo. |

You mean from the perspective of the weight difference being much less significant when there is more power available?

Yeah, it looks like they've been discontinued. I wish WedsSport would make the TC105X in silver or bronze. Just don't think the current color would look good on my Raven FRS.
