Wanted 14 inch wheels
Fandango - 23/7/15 at 06:17 PM

Hi all.

I am looking for a set of 14 inch wheels for my trackday Locost.

I have the original 13s but finding track tyres expensive.

So thought I would give these a go, not available in 13s;

http://maxsport.co.uk/product-ranges/tarmac/

My 13s are ET18 (by my best measurement!), so I need a very similar offset for optimum fit on the 14s, I already have a set of 14s with offset of ET41, but they sit far too far inboard.

Anyone got anything lying around, looks not important, just need to be straight and sound?

Cheers Carl

Unfortunately i can't help you with your hint for 14" wheels as im greedy. I would really be interested in a report / analysis of the RB5 as a track day tyre though.

I was very close to getting some NS2R but found a bargin set of A048 on ebay so went for them instead.

I have a set of pugeot 205 pepper pots, speedline all matching dates, 14x5.5 et24 iirc. All need a refurb but minimal curbing. U2u me if interested and I can send pics, I travel to bristol most weeks so could possibly meet up for a swap. Only after a few beer token so may do for track days.
