Default what are you guys using for track wheels?

i have my stock wheels...and a set of BBS RCs that the previous owner bought from Audi. They are both only 7" wide...should i be looking to get an 8" wide wheel for track use?

I'm getting the RS4 knock offs for daily driving...but i think they are way to heavy to put on a track.

so should i ditch my stock wheels or ditch the BBS RCs? The stock wheels only have about 1000 miles on them, so they still look really good. The RCs are flaking a little...the clear is coming off.

I would assume that they are both worth about the same if i where to sell them..cause the RCs aren't in pristene condition.

Default FYI. Stock wheels and Audi/BBS RC's are 7.5 inches wide. But the.. <edit>

RC's are supper light. I track with them and summer tires. The stockers are my winter setup.

LMFAO. Reminds me of my driving in GT4. Way too hard to slow down when I can keep going straight.
