Default Cheap Cheap Cheap Auto X/ track wheels

I have some 17 inch wheels on an 87 951 right now with 235 and 255's mounted. they are yokohomas and have good tread so I would like to keep it that way and buy some cheap wheels that I can mount track tires on for mostly auto X and some DE's.

What is the best wheel tire combo for this, looks dont matter and does anyone have any for sale at the moment?

I have four phone dials taking up space that I gotta dump. But they're for an 86 so I don't know if they can be worked on an 87.

theyll be sticking out of the wheel wells- they will technically "work" but you would need some camber adjustment to not rub. You need late wheels.

Aha. Didn't know which year had the greater offset so I didn't know if they'd be too far in or too far out.

I have a set of 996 twists with Hoosier R6s and some life left if you are interested. The wheels are ugly, but straight. Had them on my '87 which has been sold, and there were going on a family member's car (he's not interested at the moment though).

Shipping may suck, but I'd sell them for $600 +shipping.
