Keizer wheels sell blanks with their wheels if you want them that way. The blanks are reasonable, pretty much the price of aluminum. Wheels aren't too bad either. http://www.keizerwheels.com/ There isn't much on there for info on the wheels but give them a call. Wade is pretty helpful.

Jon, or anyone else..

got a rough price range for 14X6"? We would like to have the research done this weekend, so early monday we can order. Any Ballparks, or guesses, oir how much their team paid?

I'm not sure you'll find many teams running 14s, but it couldn't hurt to try.

Most run 10s or 13s.

Hey,

It depends on what exactly you're looking for. 14" is a weird size as most of the tires available are either 10" or 13" (check goodyear and hoosier). There's a bit of a price range depending on if you want 3 piece or 2 piece wheels. I think if I remember correctly that 8 10" 2pc Keizers were around US$800 and 8 3piece 13" aluminum ones were around $1700. Wade at Keizer had 8 blanks (1.5" thick I think) for the wheels for $150 to $250. I wouldn't quote me on any of that exactly but that's the range you're looking at.

Those were 13"x8" and 10"x6" I was talking about there by the way...

Thanks for the info. I'd also like to note our car is not even close to "most". You'll see in may. http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_cool.gif
