Need Advice on Replacement Wheels...
Looking for replacement Wheels for my EG race car. Currently has 949 Racing Wheels... 15x8 +36 on Rear and 15x10 +25 on Front. 949 did not make 15x10s on their latest production run and the 15x9s wont hold the 275/35/15 and the 15x11 are too wide. I was told Jongbloed Racing made similar sizes but when I contacted Phil's Tire Shop (I guess the exclusive dealer) they are not available from them. Wanted to get four fronts and four rears, but am at a dead end on finding anyone that makes these sizes. I guess I could consider customs but that would be an arm and a leg. Any advice or guidance greatly appreciated.... especially if you know where to locate up to four 949 Racing 15x10 +25 wheels. I included a pic of the car. It is a blast to drive on the track. Has a K20 swap and was set up with no expense spared. Bought it from a friend as is sits.

I don't think 21# is too bad for a 15x10 steel wheel, but ok.

Maybe check with the guys at goodwin, or flyin miata. I'd say pose this question on trackhq.com if you haven't already.

the konig dial in and the advanti storm both come in 15x9, a lot of 15x10's have dried up it seems.
hard to tell from the pic, but what tires are you using? and whats the rest of the setup suspension/power wise. maybe its an opportunity to try a slightly different setup

Running Hoosiers R7's 275/35/15 on front and 225/45/15 on back. Has coil overs with super stiff springs. Has a k20 swap and dynoed around 237hp and drives likes its on rails. The previous owner spent a ton of time dialing it in so was hoping to leverage off his work. The fronts have 10mm spacers (probably for clearance of the Wilwood bog brake kit) , the rear has 3mm spacers.
I'm relatively new to the Honda world so any advice is much appreciated.
