    Cheap 16x10/11 wheels, do they exist?

    Alright, so I'm looking for some wheels for after I get flairs. The only wheels I've found close to that are ~$500 each. Anybody know if there are any brands(besides steelies) that make such wheels? I'm looking for around $200 a wheel.

    Thanks in advance!

        Yes but not in our bolt pattern. The american guys have all the wheels. Your best bet might be to get some mustang wheels and have then redrilled or run adapters.

            I know! There are some simply awesome looking drag wheels out there, but none are 4x100. Going to check the prices on those... If not, looks like its steelies for me!

            I hate steelies, but maybe thats because all you ever see on them anymore are stretched tires...

                    4x100-5x130 adapters are dirt cheap too. Check out raceland for the cheapest price. They are like $130 for a set.

                      :hitler: Stop it. I want those.

                      So will steelies fit over larger brakes without mods? I'm upgrading to rx7 fronts soon.

                          Yes steelies will clear the RX7 kit in a 16.

                          the question is why? Unless you are making well north of 500rwhp WTF are you gonna do with wheels that are 10" wide, but weight like 25lbs. plus a tire that is gonna be wide and weigh a lot too.

                          or are you part of the stance crowd and are going to run -10* of camber to make them fit?

                            I'll be pushing 325ft/lbs in about 2 months, and around 500 when I get cams and aluminum heads. I'll need grip haha.

                            But they will clear? Good to know! Thanks.

                              I find it amazing that steelies would clear my RX-7 brakes. I'll be switching to the IE 6 piston kit soon for more clearance and a larger pad selection.
