That would be my choice too pro race 1's in black, tho I would go for a set of avons or yokohama's RE32, the road legal track tires that they do.

Or if money was no object OZ superleggera's.

Lighter and cost effective. And 17's will handle better.

R105'S are heavier than the GP rims, and they dont like brake dust and dirt on them! And its a waste buying black ones, far too expensive a wheel to get in black.

You dont notice the design of black wheels that much and they've quite a narrow offset so handling wont improve.

Not a wheel for track days.
