Drag Wheels DR55 17" X 7" good deal?
 
Hey,

http://www.ebay.com/itm/17-Black-Dra...a0ac5a&vxp=mtr

Found these wheels on sale on Ebay just now. I was searching for winter tires and just could not bring myself to purchasing wheelies for like $50 each. I realized hey,,.. just use my OEM wheels for the winter w/ winter tires and put that $200 that you would have spent on wheelies for new rims.

Now, i am purposely searching wheels for weight because I understand that reducing unsprung weight is a big deal. right?

These current rims weigh around 16 lbs according to:

I did not see this listed on our FT86 llist of wheel weights.

In any event,.. can someone recommend or not these wheels? Will they fit on my car which is completely stock in terms of suspension, height etc?

I cant seem to find out what they are made of.. I hope they are not cheap crap that will ruin and warp in no time.

thanks in advance.

I have no info to help you, but please post your wheels up if you buy them so I can add that wheel to the Wheel Directory. Thanks!
