The other discepline I do on the track requires me to run road radials, so I need a 2nd set of wheels and tyres. Ideally I'd like some steel wheels but they only seem to be about 6" wide, and would prefer something 6.5 or 7" wide. Am I better off going with standard 15" alloys sold on the majority of 2nd generation W201s or is there some other MB model which has a 7" wide 14 or 15" steel rim with the correct offset and PCD I can look for? I.
