[QUOTE="DSCobra01, post: 14921675, member: 13534"] Does anyone have any experience using their stock 17x8 wheels on the track for open track events? Nothing competitive, just on track weekends 2-3 times a year for fun. Have you found that buying street/track or track only tires are harder to find in the 17 inch size? Should I look for a used set of 17x9 wheels or 18x9 wheels to open up my options for tires? (These would be tires I change at the track and I don't need to drive on the street with them) Also, regarding widths, I think I want to stick to a square set of tires up to 275 max. Because the car is nose heavy as it is, I don't want to add to the understeer by throwing a tire wider than 275 in the back. Thanks for you input guys! In the end, I'm trying to see if I can re-purpose my stock wheels for the track or if I should just sell them. [/QUOTE]
