Drag racing with 17s?
I like Buddy Club P-1 Racing.
Just put them on my car with Falkens Azenis. 205 50 15.
Sticks to the ground. Scared a few friends.
Cant wait till it rains to see how they handle.
Hopefully they still stick. But nothing sticks when its wet.

hey i really like those buddy club p-1 racing wheels. i am thinking about getting the white ones to throw on my civic. it is black so i am sure it will look good. i am kinda looking for some type of silver wheels that is light though, but i do like the white wheels too.

it's really just personal preference. get what you like, or if you want to get some really lightweight wheels which do cost more but can make your car faster.

If you are looking for a nice looking 17 inch wheel I suggest looking through the Volk Racing wheels catalog. It can be found at http://www.rayswheels.com . Pretty much all of the Volk rims are lightweight, so choose the one that looks the best in your eyes. Usually for a 17inch rim they weigh in at 17lbs are lighter. I am currently having a sale on Volk Racing rims, 15% off list price. Email me for pricing and available tire packages.

Also the first photo from cre18 is called Gram Light 57pro. It is a two piece wheel with a polished lip. The rim is only available in 17 and 18 inch configurations. The gram lights are made by Rays Engineering, they also make rims for Volk Racing, STi, Nismo, and many other japanese rim companies. I also have these rims on sale for 18% off list price.
