wheels for track use? 15" or 16"

[Dannyboom]

Hey guys

Just started to modify our 172 to use on the track.

Just took these 16" wheels off and i'm thinking that 15s would be better for the track.

Is it worth selling these 16s and getting 15s to use or just keep the 16s?

 

[Dannyboom]

oops the first picture was the wrong one.

15" all day.

 

[JonnyGee]

i have used both and much better on 15's for me

15's.

Search the forum if you want specific reasons, but for 1*2's they're perfect

15", even ignoring the actual benefits, tyres are much cheaper!

15s

Ok 15s seem to be the way. Which 15s are you guys using for track.

Would a set os renault 15s do from another clio?

also what should a ask for my 16s bearing in mind there kerbed a fair bit?

Team dynamics 1.2s are a popular choice of lightweight vs cost.

Valver "Clover" Speedlines. Cheap and solid.

I ran my 172 Cup on whatever 15s I could find, from memory I had some from a Clio 16v, a 1.6 Dynamique, and a set of random TSW 6-spokes that I bought for a paltry sum on here.

Unless you're worried about looks just do that...from the driving seat you'll be highly unlikely to be able to differentiate between any 15s based on offset/weight unless your name's Tony Hunter.
