Rims for the least possible money but in the right dimensions (width, backspacing, bolt center, etc...), I came up with these circle track rims:
http://www.summitracing.com/search/Brand/Aero-Race-Wheels/Backspacing-in/6-000-in/Wheel-Width-in/10-000-in/Wheel-Bolt-Pattern/5-x-4-1-2-in/Primary-Wheel-Color/Black/?Ns=Rank%7cAsc
Not sure what the "beadlock included: no" and "beadlock functional: no" is about but guessing this has to do with mechanical locking of the tire to the rim (like screwing the beads that drag cars sometimes do). If tires would hold air mounted on them and not spin as well as a regular rim, that is good enough for me. Also, assuming these are even a possibility (and that I haven't missed something crucial preventing their use), is the "roll-formed" vs. "spun-formed" fabrication of the rim important? Roll-formed is a lot cheaper.
If I am totally off base with this find, what I am after is a 10" or possibly 11" wide rim, about 5.75" BS for 10" rim (extrapolating from what my 17 x 9's are, 5.25" BS) as inexpensive as possible to put a pair of drag tires on so I don't go messing up my Nitto N555 285/40-17 street tires.
Thanks for any help, advice, suggestions or info.
Regards,
Bob
