Sorry guys - being very lazy. I'm after a set of light weight black or Hyper black or matt blacjk or what ever is passing as black LIGHT weight rims for track amd summer use on my MCS.

Any ideas?

Pro Race 1`s
Compomotive MO`s
only two i cant think of off the top of my head

team dynamics wheels are very hard to come by. most of the models have been discontinued. i was going to get pro race 1's, or pro race 3's, but no luck... pro race 2's and pro race comp look like possibles, but im having problems tracking them down...

These things can't be as rare as

rocking horse poo

Here's some I found whilst trawling around the net.


These are all BK Racing wheels (www.topgear.co.uk

If you find any more BLACK rims, 16-17 inch, please post them here.

Cheers

From the web site the prices seem pretty reasonable.

More black rims

The Velocity or the Monza's are looking good in my book

You could of course get a second hand set of any design of wheel and get them refurbished powder coated in black (See foto). Thats an opton i was considering at one time!

Yeh its mint, got the pics off ebay wen it was on auction!

 

[s_and_m]

Thought about it

Yeh its mint, got the pics off ebay wen it was on auction!

But "just" powder coating the S spoke wheels still means that I'll have a set of very heavy rims

I'm looking for light weight summer/track day wheels that will allow my S to handle like it was designed to

What I may do is get a set of rims and then have them powder coated - anyone got an idea of the likely cost?

Hi.. have a similar thing myself. had decided which Black 17's to get when Team Dynamics decided to discontinue most of its matt black range - but they still do have the Pro Race 1 and found them for £595 with Kumho's or about £40 extra for upgarde to Yokohamas.. not sure about other upgarde but they did more or less most brands.

Thanks for this - these guys seem to be quoting about £100 cheaper than performwheels.co.uk on the Kei Racing Force 8 in hyper black.
Now I just need to find out how much they weigh.

Cheers

Here are my black 18" Rota Subzeros with toyos.

Very nice

This is why I like black rims - makes it hard to see the wheel itself - makes the car look as though it is floating

You don't happen to have a close up of the wheel do you?

Cheers

Oh and you may want to photoshop out your number plate

Have a look at CanberraCooperS's gallery. Here's some teasers for you.

: :

They're a Mille Miglia wheel, not sure of the model name. I think from memory they are under 7kg each???
