Hideous, but may be worth a try to stay cheap!

I'd like to hear what others have to say about a Circle track wheel.

They aren't that bad. Hell, if Weld made something like that, I bet a bunch of people wouldn't be too offended by it.

LOL.

17lbs for a 13" rim. Isnt that heavier than a stock steelie?

Ya if you dont want to shell out for our VPD wheels, check out for sale threads. They come up once in a while for a mounted set with slicks for $400.00 Regardless of what wheel you get, slicks all cost pretty much the same at $280-400 a pair without the wheels.

Thats a good deal for 13's, my friend has those on his crx here in Guam. He said theyre really heavy though compared to my old set of lenso's with the same size slicks.


Here's my friends crx with those rims out here in guam. turbo d16a6 on 12-14 psi on s200, ran 13.0 with a a stock d15b7 and an old school JG pro series head head on same psi.

Haha, I figured as such. Which means they are definitely NOT a good Lenso alternative. .

Theyre pretty light. Plenty strong enough, and cheap... I use 15" the version and they fit FINE over R calipers asnd 11 inch rotors...
