WTB - 2nd set of wheels

newBDR · #1 (**permalink**) 03-05-2009, 08:05 PM

looking for 2nd set of wheels for my BDR. I believe they are 17 x 8; 4-1/2" backspace and 17 x 11; 5-3/4" backspace. 120mm x 5. I have team 3 wheels now that came with the car but would consider others that would fit.

any dealers have some used wheels? I dont really want to buy new team IIIs.

Ray, if you are after track wheels, you may consider 9 1/2s or 10" fronts, you can easily run a 275 or 295 on the front, and a 335 on the rear

thanks.

your profile says track car, full cage, etc. did you buy a new track day TD car or modify a regular BDR into a track car? I've thought about doing the latter.

Bailey is on his second TD car.

Keep in mind you have the earlier body, so the later wider wheels/tires will not be as friendly to your fenders.

I don't know what your budget/intent is but I have a set of 17" K/Os with the adapters on the shelf and they are new with Eagle F1s.

Jay, even trade ... my car for a new TD?
