Im looking for a set of budget 13" wheels for slicks, perferably 7-8" wide.

Iv found diamond racing wheels and Im still waiting for them to reply to me.

if you have any suggestions for a budget 13" wheel for slicks please post them.

 

I have diamond racing wheel's and I really enjoy them.

 

will you please post pics and specs?
what brakes are you running, cost of the wheels, offset...etc

 

Check the for sale threads. Used is where your save money.

Kind of far away, but here are Welds;

 

Iv been looking, I found a used set of bogarts on craigslist for 250, but the guy would not ship :/

car looks nice but I know welds will be out of my budget.

I was considering these for my ek civic with gsr brakes.

 

iv seen those, unfortunately they aren't much cheaper then a set of lensos. Im looking for wheels in the $150 per pair range.

 

diamond racing wheels. 8x13 4.5" backspace. they made the rears too 4x15.



there's more pics here http://s302.photobucket.com/albums/n...20Car%20Build/

 

I like, how much did they run you?

 

I spent the last two years scoring the internet for a set of Weld Racelites. Had to get everything in pieces as they're NLA, but I'm about 600 into the set with tires.

 

i absolutely love these wheels. this was the last pair that jegs had since weld stopped making them. they are light.

 

i bought a used set of 4 13x8 diamonds... for 50 bucks.

i'm using two on the front for autox, 2 on the front with my 24.5x9x13 slicks (car runs low 11s/will run high 10s)

cant wait.

 

ugh jerk! lol I want those.

what front brakes are you running because from what Iv read you cant fit them over gsr brakes with out some sort of spacer deally.

 

id also like to find some cheap 13's that will fit over da integra brakes. 13x8 perfered.

 

haha, running gsr front brakes with no spacers.

 

what wheels and specs. thanks

 

to clear bigger brakes, some "Real" drag wheel would be needed (volks, v2' s, or lensos).

or DIAMONDS will crazy spacers.

with a 3/4'' spacer, i think i can clear my ITR caliper'd 10.2'' brakes (slightly bigger than GSRs.).

i only run those at the roadcourse though ,and run stockers otherwise.

 

the wheels are the ones i posted a picture of, the weld's up above. i believe the back spacing is 4" or 5", i dont know which, they are 13 x 8. have had them for a few years now. got gsr front knuckles/hub/brake setup on ek hatch and they fit with no problem with no spacers.

 

god slicks **** me the **** off lol. I just hate being such a tight ***. like I dont mind spending the money on the rubber, but I hate the idea of paying 350ish for 2 13" wheels that total a whopping 16lbs combined. I just feel like its alot.if I could find a pair for 200 I would be down to buy them, but Iv been looking for used for about 6 months now, and the only good deals I find the seller absolutely wont ship :/

 

I've personally seen someone run 9's on steelies, so if you're really a cheap *** you could do that I guess.

 

i have been thinking about getting these

You should try circle wheels, http://www.circleracing.com/shopsite...tml/index.html

 

what kind of lug nuts do you use for them?also where can i buy the lug nuts?

 

They were about $100 per wheel.

 

im using the open ended acorn style nuts
