Racing wheels, standard fit
 
I cant seem to find any light racing wheels that will fit the same tires as the stock mazda 18" can someone give me some suggestions please?

What brand wheels are preffered for street racing?

TopGear8 04-28-2009 09:56 AM

^Street Racing? I hope you are talking about at the track...The RPF1's come in 18x8 and are very light, also the O.Z ultraleggera come in 18x8 and are much lighter than stock as well. If you have any more questions or want to buy some let me know.

rawker9999 04-29-2009 06:25 AM

Yes i would love to buy some, but the pricing...
could i find any good wheels for under $2,000 for 4?

rawker9999 04-29-2009 06:59 AM

I apologize both those rims are for under 2000,
i have a question though, the ultralaggera is a little less expensive then the o.z. alleggerita hlt what is abetter wheel because the alleggerita is lighter.

TopGear8 04-29-2009 09:50 AM

^The alleggerita just came out and IMO is a better wheel than the Ultraleggera. It's lighter and looks better. But both are great wheels for AutoX and Road Racing.

Question: If you're willing to blow 2k on wheels - why not just get a wider wheel + tires. W/2k at your disposal I'm pretty sure you can find a killer deal on 18x9.5 RPF1's + tires from a forum vendor or something.

Though the OZ wheels would be nice - i would hate to have them at stock width - this is just IMO of course.

i dont have 2k to blow id have to borrow it.
id love to find good quality light wheels for under 900 but i cant find any

Atilla 04-29-2009 01:45 PM

IMHO - save up some money, Get a deal from one of the forum vendors for RPF1's and tires.

rawker9999 04-29-2009 01:48 PM

Thanks

^You can get the 5zigen FN01R-C's for around 900, and they are lighter than stock. Or you can get the 17x9 RPF1's which are very light, and close to your price range.

I like the RPF1s...light weight, cheap, and look great.

Mahwah....not far from me.

Under 900 will be hard. You can buy used or sell stockers and you will end up around that price.
