How much in pounds are the TT sized lemans wheels? Hard to find that factoid...

TIA

Can one use the 9.5" rear model for snows (the pirelli 240 tire that I got from TireRack in a 265.....does it need spacers?)?

265 will fit great on a 9.5" wheel.

I'm sure the forum thanks you for the real-life feedback Mike. I have an easier time buying a well-thought-out argument using plain English, rather than someone spouting off unsupported grievances with a product in some sort of indecipherable gibberish...

I almost bought a set from Discount tire, they actually looked good to me, cant beat the price. Plus its a less expensive way to not look like the other 50k turbos in the US.

Cheap..........Frugal..........Value.............. all good terms.

I have searched long and hard for a good set of track wheels. I could have picked up a set of Classic's with new Perili's for $2K from the dealer. I thought long and hard and that would only give me 2 sets of wheels with 2 sets of street tires. I wanted track tires.

The search continued....................when I read about the Victor wheels and talked with the DT people, I saw the value. The Black Lemans wheels look so good on my Meteor Gray, I am thinking about selling my Turbo wheels and buying another set of the Lemans in Black for my 19" street wheels.

The silver center caps pop right into the Victor wheels as well.

So I guess we need to spend close to 10% of a cars value on wheels?
