Default Light Wheels

Im looking at gettin some wheels for when i go down to the drags for my au i6 and wondering what are some of the lighter factory alloys and stockies or cheap after market wheels around to use. Also whats a decent set of tyres to put on them for that will be used for a high 14 to low 14 run.

Thanks Jake

P.S if more info is needed just ask Thanks

When we ran Tri Power's AU 6cyl into the low 14 time bracket most of our success was with his standard everyday dunlop tyres. Don't get too greedy and go for a big tyre as these cars don't make enough power to warrant a big rim/tyre combo.

Regards Craig
