Very affordable 19x10.75 wheels for track use?

[X25]

My friend found these, and I wonder if they would work for our cars. I also posted about them in wheels section, but feedback from roadcourse track drivers is what I need most:

From: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...80#post7953680

For front:
XXR 530 19x10.75 Chromium Black 5-114.3/5-120 [+15mm]
http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-530-Wh.../53090432n.htm
Backspacing 6.47
Centerbore 73.1
Load Rating (LBS) 1580
Approx. Weight 23.4
JWL/VIA Certified Yes
Required Lug Nuts Tuner Style

For rear:
XXR 530 19x10.75 Chromium Black 5-114.3/5-120 [+35mm]
http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-530-Wh.../53090142n.htm
Backspacing 7.25
Centerbore 73.1

What do you guys think? If I calculated correctly, the fronts should be almost identical to stock 1LE wheels by the inside (which is where it counts most), and stick more outside by about 18 mm; rears should be sticking only ~5mm more outside compared to 1LE rears.

Interesting, What do our 10 spoke wheels weigh?

Around 27.5/28.5 F/R as far as I've heard. So, these are very light, just a little bit more than Forgestar CF5Vs actually. Since they don't mention that they are forged, I'm a bit concerned, though. That load rating might not be correct, which would put us in danger during track use.

TSWs 19x10.5 cost about $1000 at this site, which are the cheapest known to be spin-forged wheels I know of.

Load rating would concern me the most.

my past 19x11 Forgestar CS5V weighed in at 24 lbs and the 19x10 was 23.75 or so. Honestly I wouldn't put my life at risk on these rims. Examine the design. Those holes around the hub takes away strength where it is needed and as I recall many tracked rims broke from the center hub area. Also for the price there is no way these are built with strength in mind at that weight an price. These are strictly tuner wheels made for street use and looks. TSW Nurbs in 19x10.5 weighs 26 lbs more than I wanted. However they are listed at 1650lbs load rating and feels strong as hell. I trust them, these I do not.

Aren't they listed as 22.4 lbs? Are those weight numbers at TSW's site wrong?

Wrong like you wouldn't believe. I am actually going to call them today and see what's the deal with that. I weighed them on 3 different scales all industrial and same weight. 19x10.5" are even heavier than the 20x10" almost 1 lb.

That's messed up. I suppose that's the reason you decided to get something else; I would not blame you. In light of this, 19x11 CF5Vs seem to be a much better alternative now.

Oh no that's now why I am getting something else the deal I realize my car corners faster with 20s over 19s so I am going back to 20s. Also of all the cheap wheels that fit our cars I trust TSW the most. Even GTR guys track them without issues and that car is another PIG. Here is a post on another forum about those XXR wheels, http://jdmchicago.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20513.Only buy real wheels; if you can't afford them, wait and save more money

I would never track a multi lug wheel, especially a dirt cheap Chinese cast one.

Have you talked to them yet?

[Lumino1LE]

I have the TSW Panorama 19x10.5 = 25lbs + Toyo R888 295x30. They are about the same weight.

No direct number. Honestly man I might have to give CCW or Forgeline a call.

L99Cama2011 PMed about APEX wheels, which are designed for BMWs. They seem to be a good fit for track duty, too.

19x10.5 ET27; it might be a great fit in all corners, with the rears sticking out a little bit? 22.95 lbs is very good!
