Team Dynamics Pro Race options

Post by RafsMR2 »

Hi guy’s, so I’m thinking of upgrading my standard wheels, the question I have is shall I go for a swap with original tyres 15” front and 16” rear or upgrade to 17” all round and are Team Dynamics a good option?

17" have better options on tyres
Should try and go staggered wheels (i.e wider on rear).

I have had both 16" and 17" and much prefere the 17" set up. each to their own.

TD’s are decent wheels, some are nice and light compared to stock. Personally I’d stick with stock sizes even if you do go aftermarket wheels

I think I agree with you, stock may be better

I stuck with 15" and 16" (both will be 7" wide so the front is 1/2" wider than stock).

I like keeping the sidewall height of the front as I have coilovers.

I went for ET35 both ends with 195 & 225 width tyres but this is too much, I wouldnt go for less/more?! than ET38 if buying again to stop rubbing on the rear arches. The stock is ET45 but I wanted to push the wheels out more.
