Is this one of the puzzle sentences you have to unscramble?

I love the 313s that come on them... I want a pair for mine...

In the racing field we often make fun of how typical street car enthusiasts who drive their cars on the street are so preoccupied with wheel performance.

Just pick the best looking wheels. It doesn't matter all that much how light a wheel is.

These are the nicest wheels with the lowest price/weight ratio that I've seen in person. They're around $300 / under 19 lbs each (and they're not made in China). I'm considering them as an 18x9.5 square track setup for my E46 M3 mounted with Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec tires. I believe the wheels are made for TireRack by Enkei.

sure it matters. you can feel the suspension working more easily with less unsprung weight. OK so I'm talking seven or eight pounds a corner, not a tiny amount.

anyway first idea would be to skip the 19s...

edit: oh you are already. good start
