Technical barchetta steelies??

[petebarchetta]

is there any change in ET offset between the barchetta steels and the alloy pack?
i need a set for track days and want to know if any of you are upgrading to alloys that need rid of a set of four?? also whats the best rubber to put on? brigdstones? pirelli's?

I have a set of Punto HGT wheels on my B at the mo. I did get the bolts with the wheels second hand from eBay, so dont know if you will need bolts as well as wheels. (would think so)

As for rubber, I have had two P6000 that only lasted 14000 on the front !! Fast driving but no wheel spins or anything like that.

I now have Nankang tyres on the front and P6000 on the back, the Nankang came from ebay Germany as a gift from my father, but worked out to be a real bargin at £40-45 ish for two with delivery. Now I know what you are saying, "Nankang !?!?! who the f**k is Nankang ?? sounds well crap 2 me" !!

I have been running the tyers for just over a month now and am real happy with them and will be fitting them on the back soon. I cant say how long I will get from them but up 2 now I am real happy with grip and handling as well as looking the part.

Ps when getting anything from eBay Germany ,make sure you can pay with Paypal, banks charge crazy money for sending money £15 pound or so.

Hope this helps
