Did anyone ever find a source for these on the cheap ?Ideally
I'd want to fit the std rims or would it be easier to get some 16" wheels ?
Std GTA ...Rears are the main problem ......

I got some from Ebay after a while as new they are astronomical, but they rarely come up in good condition, most are old and past it. R888s seem popular as they are a compromise on price and road legal.

i got a set in the end, but they were hard to come by, also as said i think there past it, sidewalls have slight cracking may try some tyre treatment but last thing i want is a blowout, i run medium compound 888s on the road, might consider getting a set of supersofts for the track

i wouldnt bother getting a set of supersoft 888's, killed mine in half a day at mallory theres 3 sets of slick on ebay at the minute that im watching problem is there on wheels with the wrong offset..

I don't really want to change wheel size but the 15" are just not around .Car is lowered 25mil rear and 35 front so I suppose going to a bigger rim will not make it any taller than std ........It's just I have loads of std rims lying about .......
