I was thinking of gettin a set of smaller and light rims solely for the purpose of autocrossing. I know what tires I will get, but I am looking for some suggestions regarding where and what rims to get.
Right now, im running on heavy 17" Montegi rims with Dunlops sp901. Believe me I know its not the best set up.
A suggestion that was given to me was to use my stock rims (which have blizzaks on them) and put on sports tires for autocrossing and put the winter tires back on when the season is over. But the idea of using such a narrow rim turns me off. Im just wondering if there is a specific type/brand of rim that would be better suited for this sport.

"I know Solo only comes one minute at a time, but what an intense, non-stop, fast-forward car control exercise minute it is. Sure, the velocity is higher in road racing, but inside the car it is slow-motion in comparison. In Solo, the turns come like machine-gun rounds. "
