Wheels and Tires for AutoX

Has anyone found some reasonably priced 18" wheels that are street class legal that will fit on a sport model? It seems like there are plenty of 18" Mustang wheels

Not really... and I looked a lot. I wasn't really considering anything that was heavier than the stock Rays though. I imagine if you don't have that requirement then you can probably find options.

I almost pulled the trigger on some Advan RGIIIs, but with their price, and not being able to test fit them before custom ordering a set with the wonky front offset that is required by the rules, I decided to just stick with the stock 19" Rays. I took a lot of measurements and spent time on the phone with the NA Advan distributor having them take measurements of the wheel, and I feel pretty confident that they would fit.

The difference in price on RS3 V2s is $100 a corner for 18s compared to 19s, so even with moderately expensive wheels, you're saving $400 per set of tires so it won't take long for them to pay for themselves.
