16x8 autocross wheels

[CrazyB]

Can someone suggest some 16x8 or 8.5 wheels that would be good for autocross, meaning not boat anchors.
I am planning on running a 245/45/16 tire on them.

But looks like I cant find anything except the cheapo xxr wheels which have either a funky offset or are really heavy.

16x9 with +15 offset seems like it would fit with a 10 mm spacer or so but 18 lbs is still kind of heavy and not sure of quality.

16x9 et5 with 245/45s? are you running fender flares?

if you want to run wider than 225s, go to 17x8 or 17x8.5 wheels around et25-30

your best bet would probably to do the 15x8 wheel with the stickiest 225/50 or 225/45 tire you can find.

I would agree with this. Although, good luck getting them in a color you want. 16x8 et20 rota's have been on backorder for almost a year since they haven't gotten an order large enough to fill a container. Shipping is expensive as fuck over there right now. The last time I checked back in Feb, there were only 6 for sale brand new from all nationwide distributors and none of them
compiled a color-matched set.
