If you guys could have the perfect wheel offset for a 15x 7.5 what do you think you would go for. I am really trying to get this wheel made to run no wheel spacers as I really dont like them at all. Hopefully I will have some information in the next week and can show you some pictures of what the wheel will look like.

Sorry i don't know the exact offset w/ the brembos but i would have to believe the would be a lot.

With my Willwoods i still run a 15X7 +35 and a 15mm spacer.

This is only going to be a drag wheel that will work with the Wilwood brakes. I am looking into a 15 x 7 and a 15 x 8 option wheel with a +35 offset, weighing in at 9 lbs

That should do the trick then i believe "Mellon" used a 15x7 +40 on another small brake kit w/o the use of spacer.....just something to think about....not sure how the fitment would be w/ the willwood though?

Do you know approx what the price will be for them?

I have not got a firm price from them yet but I would say it would be around the low to mid $200's with also an option to have the center area anodized. I should be posting the pics of the wheel look next week.

I love the tracklites but am a little scared running a wide slick on a 6.5" rim, that is why I am trying to make the perfect wheel for the evo that is as light as possible.

A little teaser of the style the wheels will be, this is the fwd drag setup but you get the idea.

I do believe i've seen those before (Bizi's Honda Insight) runs those i believe.

Not the best looking but if they're affordable and sturdy it'll be nice for us to have more options!

Someone needs to photochop these on an evo

You are correct , Bisi runs those on his Honda. I think they would look pretty good on the Evo , plus price and the wieght I dont think they can be beat.
