post ur pics of 5lug/15" wheels with slicks!
seeing if any you guys rocken 5lug/15" wheels with slicks. Im looking for good set 5lug 15" wheels for my mt slicks...post pics! thanks
Ill sell you my cragar soft 8's. 15x8 4 inch backspacing.
i cut 1.61's and 1.62's consistently.
They weigh in at 16 lbs a piece...a little on the heavy side, but with everything right they worked and worked well. I think the car had 1.5s in it but the slicks just got worn out or maybe the sidewall was worked down. I am not to sure but after corner balancing the car and a new alignment i cut 2 1.61's in a row and then after that it got worse and worse did 1.69's 1.68's then. I have also not been back to my home track since the corner balance so the other tracks could of been a reason behind it.

The potential sales on 15" in 5 lug is just not there to justify manufacturing them in that size.
who would buy 15" in 4lug? only for drag radials i could think of, but would you need a certain amount of people to make 5x114 mold? thanks
To be honest with you, to make a wheel worth it, we would need to sell in the range of 300-400 units. I doubt we can sell that much in a short period of time.
15x8 are used in road racing and autocross applications. Miatas, Hondas, etc. Thats a big market for those.

looks good, friend of mine has slicks on his itr, i was thinking about it too, but wanted a wider wheel 15x7-8, any affects you notice on the 15x6 wheel? slicks too rounded? they hook up good, whats ur best 60' and what psi you use?
i think lots of people would buy the 15 x 8 lenso's specially guys who want to step up to a bigger tire. right now your options for the 15x 8 " rims are awesome, but expensive. plus the low offset crew's, autocrossers, drag radial guys, etc... it would be cool if they were streetable.

yes we are actively working on the 15x8 VPD at the moment. So look for that in the near future.
I dont have any pics but I always used 15x7 or 15x8 slipstreams and never had an issue on my ITR. 15x7 is a pretty common slipstream and you can get two pretty cheap. The 15x8 was done on a group buy years ago in the ITR forum. If your lucky you can find a set floating around out there somewhere.

Actually we do. We have 1 design in the works. Non-Staggered though. But how soon it will be available, I dont know yet. We have other wheels we're releasing first later this year before we get them in production.
