Hmm...thanks.
I really like the 12-spoke Volks but they are hard to get. Guess I need to decide.

Some HRE are not meant for track use. Best bet is to contact them and ask about the exact model and sizes for the application.

Or in short, some are poser and some are track wheels.

I decided on the HRE's after some input from some of the shops that build and race these cars.
The HRE P44SC is a monoblock wheel and will be suitable for tracking the car.
Should have them on the car next Friday.
