Damn those are expensive.

There are quite a few custom forged wheel shops that will build you any wheel you want for 750 each or less.


I would hate to have to find tires for a 9x15... I sold my 15's years ago because I couldnt find tires for them anymore.

Agreed on price for sure. Could you recommend a wheel manufacturer that could build me something similar that would be safe to race on?

I'm currently able to find 888's and Maxxis Slicks -Hoosier also makes the R7, but my last name isn't Rockefeller.

Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I'm with you. I just put my new A7s on a set of 15x8 Fuchs but they would be much happier on a 15x9 wheel if I could find one thats reasonably priced and doesn't weigh 50% more than the Fuchs.

Maxilite 15x9 "fuchs" may your answer.

If you like the Minilite wheel look, there are a few manufacturers that make them at pretty reasonable prices. VTO and Panasport are two I can think of.
