Best Track Day wheels????
i am thinking of doing a few track days in my turbo but i am not sure what are the best tyres/wheels to use on a track......my 17's aint going to be no good.
ive been using 15s for most of the time. with the right offset and a good setof tyres you cant really go wrong.
just got 14s for it now so im gunna have to see how they handle
i had 14s on for a while, but due to the fact that the tyres were crap it didnt handle very well. Ive now got some 16s on and it handles so much better i can throw it around corners as hard as i want an its never spun :D
tyres are the key. i'm running goodyear eagle f1's 195/50 15" on a 6" rim.... the car is much better than it was on yoko a529 185/60 14" 5" rim
does profile have anything to do with it?
i have f1's in 195/45/15. should i be looking at 50's for the track of does it not make a difference
if you get motorsport tyres they normally have a much thicker and more sturdy side wall which helps loads with the handling.
i prefer a higher profile but its personal preference really. a lower profile will give you a very harsh ride where as a higer one will cause the tyres to feel like they are folding under the rim.
