I'm after a set of 17" wheels, purely for track day use.

They MUST fit over the Prodrive/Alcon brake upgrade - if unsure let me know the info and I'll figure out if they will fit.

I'm not bothered about tyres - if they have some on it would be useful but they don't even need to be road legal! Shod with slicks would be a bonus

RB5 wheels would be great (as I have an RB5) but I'm really not bothered about type/design or colour, or even if they are a bit kerbed/scratched.

Cash waiting (as they say) and I want to buy NOW so I don't trash my road tyres at Bedford on the 25th.

So, dig those old wheels out of the garage and mail me at

650 is a bit much for me as the tyres are all wrong for track use with an RB5...

Anyone else??

Unfotunately, none of the sets offered will fit over the Alcons.

Any others?

Got any more info on the wheels, BUDA?

eg offset and whether they will fit over Alcons?

Search is turning up a blank for 'black widow' in wheels section - are they usually used on the scoob?

Still after a set

As I'm not having much luck, anyone suggest where I could get a new set without paying a huge amount of cash...

Hi there,

How much are you looking at spending ?

I have a set of MiMs.. in black... 17"

Machined to prevent wheel arch rubbing...

they are shod with slicks..

they cleared the brembo brake conversion.

J.
