Question

As title, not seen/heard much of these wheels lately, they still exist?

Have Raceline got a website?
Or whas their phone number?

Or does anyone know of any (non split-rim) 17" wheels 8.5" or wider... (as RL5s are the only 17" wheels i know that comes/came in 8.5", and never seen wider, barring splitrims).

HELP! And cheers in advance...

Raceline are now solely owned by "Speedline" and production was stopped due to the ltd no. (in comparison) of wheels sold - there is talk that speedline will be re-introducing this range of motorsport wheels in the near future but last time i spoke with them there was no date...........

ARGH crapmunchers.....

From what i can gather, rally regs limit 17" wheel width to 8" wide, and all racers ive seen seem to run splitrims, so the chances of me finding wider, that arnt splitrims, are slim/none...

Any ideas? Basicly a rim that can hold a 245/255 tyre, so 8.5" minimum really...

Nightmare.

Cheers for help so far tho.

Nice wheel the RL7 - had 17" anthracite ones on my old Scoob. Always liked them as they were a little different and you didn't see too many other cars with them on.
