    Cheap autocross wheels

    What is everyone running for autocross? I'm looking for some 15" options as that is the tire size i'd like to run. I've been contemplating some steel racing wheels, but they are a pain to have balanced and they really arent that light.

                          Get the 15x8s unless you're class restricted to 15x7s. I'd be dumb not to.

                              ^^ this. And as 619E30 said, it's a Tire Rack only wheel.

                              TRM = Tire Rack Motorsports.

                              They are made for them by Enkei, or at least they were as of a few year ago.

                              D-Force and Team Dynamics are also other options but they only come in 15x7 I believe.

                                          Sportmaxxors are also cheap, although I have no clue what the weight is on them.

                                          Kosei K1's are also a prime choice.

                                              k1s are going to be damn near impossible to source.

                                              my money is on sportmax wheels. I was going to run some 15x8 +0s, but I fell onto a good deal on 16" tires.


                                              With that said, I found some 16x7.5 borbets for $200 on craigslist.

                                                      I have both the D-Force LTW and Kosei K1s, both are good and strong, but as other stated, only come in 15x7. For a 225 tire, you should have 15x8s.
