Just after a few opinions on the team dynamic pro race 3 wheels?!

Im after a wheel for track days, im a tight yorkshire man so dont want to spend alot but want some nice wheels that do the job. I already have seen the 1.2s and they get very good reviews but saw these and was wondering what people think?

Thanks in advance, Cheers

Donny

Don't want to spend a lot, then search for some other wheel imo!

You need a set of C5 wheels if brake clearance isn't an issue Thumbs up

Apart from the ones that were sold this week, arent they quite hard to find?

I was told that they struggle with brake cooling but could be wrong?!?!

What other wheels would you suggest?

run a pipe/duct to the inside of wheels , solves the cooling issue.

This is true....

I thought about this, would that not throw rubbish from the roads onto the brakes?

And if its wet throw water on?!

Or am I thinking to much into it?! As usual haha

So the pro race 3s aren't the best?

Any other ideas on track wheels??

I spoke to TD about PR3s for my S2 last year, as I prefer the simple 5 spoke style to the multi-spoke 1.2s (which are also being fitted to just about every tuned car nowadays - I guess due to their BTCC ties and lightweight). Anyway, they're sligtly heavier than the 1.2s, I was told ~1kg heavier for 17x8 wheel... They're very similar looking to the MO 5 spokes too, which is not a bad thing Smile

There are some Compmotive CXRs on here at the mo, now that's a lightweight alloy wheel Wink

Black can be a bit severe, anthracite gets my vote (I have antravite alloys on my white S2 and it looks good IMO).
