15" wheels
Numb nuts - 12/9/10 at 05:46 PM

I am looking for another set of the 15" wheels for my Velocity XT, for track day tyres.

It has 'Team Dynamics' 7J 15 rims as supplied by Luego in the kit, but I can't see what offset they have.

I am sure some of you out there know the offset...please

Are there any standard rims (steel/alloy) being used by track day enthusiasts that I might source to use on track?

Should tell you on the inside of wheel somewhere.

For track day wheels I would have thought 13" would be better unless they won't go over your brakes. You'll save a fortune on tyres and by all accounts should get nicer handling to boot.

I heard somewhere that 13's have problems fitting over rear discs.

They don't go over my sierra rear calipers.

That answers that...I have the same here

Some 13's will go straight over, other ones can be made to fit by changing the handbrake spring to one with one less coil or of a different style.

Do a search on here and you'll find the info.

My 13" Team Dynamics fit over my sierra calipers. I had some special springs made with one coil less. They clear the inside of the wheel. I had a small batch made. I have some sets let if you are interested. Please U2U
