I'm buying a super black next week and need some nice 18" wheels. I want them to be either fully black or with a silver polished lip. I've never been to a track before, but i think i'm gonna seriously get into it in the summer. I've wanted to race cars since i was a little kid and now have the ability to actually do so. So please suggest something that looks great, but is also practical. I know that there is always a balance, and the absolutely best track wheels won't also be the absolutely best-looking wheels, so what i'm looking for is perhaps something a little better looking, even if it means taking a slight hit in performance. Also, if someone could teach me a thing or two about wheels, i would really appreciate it. Tell me about weight and what effect it has on performance, plus anything else i need to know. Thanks guys!

 

If i were you i' go with a SMC coating(chrome look, but not actual heavy *** chrome) or full polish on a SB. But that's just my opinion.


A very good choice i'd like to see on a z are the Racing Hart CP-F Tune in 18". They are multi piece wheel with a polished lip an black(other choice available is bronze) face. They also make them in a perfect size for a Z. 10 wide and 23+ offset.

**** i think of switching to these myself

$500/ea? Ouch! What sets them apart from the $200/ea wheels?

 

I found some Buddy Club wheels that are super light weight but pricey. They are the Buddy Club P1 QF. They are gunmetal in color but the 18 x 9 is 14.8 lbs and the 18 x 10 is 16.1 lbs
