Default New Race wheels - Formula 43
We made substantial improvements to the racecar this winter and are finally emerging from that process.

These wheels were ordered from our local race wheel supplier and forum supporter Formula 43.

Thanks for the positive feedback! Prices start at $875.00 per wheel and include a polished outer rim, anodized black, clear or powder coated center section and metal valve stem.

All FORMULA 43 wheels are custom built to order for each specific application.

Let me know if I can be of assistance for wheel consultation.

Thanks!

Polished rim on a racecar? Ok.
Are they available without?
Whats the approx weight of an 18 x 11 rim?

David FWIW.... I'm slowly switching all my rears to 12" to accommodate Yokohama's 300/650/18 slicks. Plenty of room to the inside...

Depending on offset and brake clearance needed the RAD 10 Club Sport will weigh between 22-23lbs each.

Our standard finish features a polished outer rim, however we offer anodizing or powder coating on the outer and inner rims.

I have a set of the RAD 14 for sale with the bead blasted so they grip the tires. Awesome wheels. They are 997 narrow body fitment. 9x18 and 12x18. I am looking for $1700 for the set.

The shop is working overtime buttoning this thing up but it may not be done until the weekend. Mid Ohio might be the first ST race for me.
