Track Wheels
I'm considering Enkei RC5's for my 96 993 for track days. 18x8s and 18x10s. They seem to be a good value. Any thoughts?

I got the 17" 7 1/2" fronts 9" rears Cup 4 wheels from Tire Rack. About $700 a set...so far so good. Really like these wheels. They are similar in weight to Cup II 17" wheels. Yes, they are made in China...but then again BBS is made in Germany.
18" any thing? Not for me. Tire more expensive and heavier, you don't gain that much width if you put 245 and 275 on the Cup 4 wheels.
And if you break or bend one (God forbid), you can buy just one. This is a real problem if you are running Porsche Cup II wheels...try buying one (1) 9" X 17" Cup II wheel?
