Best wheels for IT?

[worthyking]

Thanks all for your feedback so far, however I'm not willing to wait 2-3 months for a set of wheels. Team Dynamics apparently needs that long to get me a set and it also appears that the Rota Slipstreams are all out of stock in the US right now in 15x7 (argh!). 18Racing told me 3 months to special order two sets of Slipstreams.

I need 6 wheels stat, preferably 8. Any other suggestions?

I'm almost tempted to just order the darn Motegi SP10s from TireRack but at 14lbs they're not the most exciting choice. Was really hoping to get into the 10-12lb range.

Did you try spinwerkes?

All the wheels that Greg Amy listed are not available. The Rota slips are 14 pounds
in the 5x100/15x7. Thats what i've been using lately.

@ScotMac - No, didn't try spinwerkes yet due to the price. Not willing to spend over $200 per wheel right now as I need 8 of them.

@Kolin - I haven't been able to find any Rota Slips in stock anywhere. Any ideas?

I also bought them from 18racing .com. Sorry do not know of other sources. If I was not going to runoffs you could borrow some of mine and just return them to me at sebring nat 2011. But I need all of them. Long week there.

I'd just do the Motegi at tirerack as they weigh the same as the Rota's

Check some of the junk yards in the area. I got a set of BBS light-weights (not sure of the exact weight) at Greenleafs a couple of years ago for $100 per SET (used). With the tuner guys going to 20" plus, you should find some to get you started.

Also, are you going to the July school at Sebring??????

Hmm, interesting idea. I was at Cophers a couple weekends ago and thought about that but didn't think I'd find anything worthwhile there.

Yes, I'll be at Sebring July 17/18th. I have a regional license but going for the cheap seat time
