Best bet for inexpensive track wheels?

I'd like to consider purchasing inexpensive track wheels that I don't care about getting rubber burned into them or anything track-y like that =) I also don't want to buy a new set of street rubber after every weekend at the track.

What's the best way to go about this? Are there places I should look for good "used" wheel/tire deals for track days? What new brands/models do you recommend?

OEM hollow spokes for your 996TT. Light and strong. Plenty great deals on Ebay.

Forums are a great place to start. Rennlist forums? Local PCA chapter mailing list? There are plenty of options out there with regards to cheap wheels over at Tire Rack (at least for my M3).

I'm willing to sell you my Black Turbo Twists that came off my 996 C4S if you're interested w/ Conti SportContact 2's. I'll let them go for $650 w/ the tires (rear tires need to be replaced though).....here's what they look like.....

Have you looked into the OZ Allegeritas we have coming in? Very light, strong. About $500 each.

^^Hey Chris, no it wasn't me unfortunately but funny you mention it, I did submit my application and was called back for the 1st season of the show.....It was another C4S with a couple guys from Jersey/Long Island I think.......Wish they could have represented P-Car better though but lost on the first episode....
