Thoughts on wheel/tire combos
Okay...I am really struggling to make a decision on a wheel/tire combo. I plan to get back into track events, maybe once a month or every other month. I plan to get the Hankook RS3s, in 245/40/17.
So which wheels would you go with? RPF1s make the most sense, due to their reputation and weight...but I'm not too crazy about the looks. I like the OZ Ultraleggeras, but it only comes in 17x8. I've had the Team Dynamics wheels before, and really liked them. I've always had black wheels, and plan to do the same for this car. So all of the wheels below would be in black. OZ Ultraleggera 17x8 (17lbs) Enkei RPF1 17x9 (16.1lbs) Enkei RPF1 17x8 (15.6lbs) Team Dynamics PR 1.3 17x9 (aprox 19lbs) Thanks! |

It will work but it's not optimal.
