Lightweight 1 Piece Alloy Wheels?
Benzo - 15/1/15 at 05:20 PM

Hi guys,

Im needing a new set of 13x7 & 13x8" wheels.

Currently I've got some nice force racing split rims but 3 piece wheels have been banned from my race championship.

what are my options?

I have contacted Compomotive, they are doing CXR's but they are now doing a flat faced 1381 which i detest and can't supply the 1380 anymore. Plus I've owned 4/5 sets already so i would like to try something else.

Revolutions are light, but I'm not dying about the look of them.

What are my other options? is there anything new on the market?

Or has anyone anything forsale that would tempt me in those sizes.

Have a look at the Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 but I think they only do 7" wide

Check out braid racing wheels - they do quite a range of lightweight alloys for race use

Does this (rule change?) mean that some rather nice split rims will be appearing for sale at some point?
How many people out there is this likely to affect?

Not mine no, I'll be getting them widened and putting them onto another project.

At the moment people who are active in the championship I am the only person running splits so I wouldn't imagine an multiple sets being up forsale.

I can't believe there are no other options for 1piece wheels

Yeah i noticed that too but ive just bought a set of 7" and 6" off WSCC site so i'm wondering if they actually are 7" now lol.
Maybe there are some 7" carbon copies somewhere or they just dont do them anymore.

23 sounds like I could work with it in the front but going to need a 0 on the back or 20mm spacer!!
