Track wheels

[rblong]

What are you guys running for good light track wheels? I have a set of nice 17" Boyd's that I just ordered Hossiers for but I can already tell I will need another set so I have streets and a set of tracks.

I could even go 15s but 17s are better for the track aren't they?

You need really strong wheels for the track that can withstand the extra side loads and torsional flex that they must endure. I have an extra set of Bart/Diamond Nascar wheels(15") with Hoosiers already mounted on them that I'll take $500 for if you are interested. They are Nascar-rated wheels so you know they will hold up. Hoosiers only have 5 heat cycles on them

I checked on a set of road racing rims last year. I found this company.

Those are the wheels I have with Hoosiers.

They require a special 1" lugnut.......They are included also.
