The best Volk TE-37 knock-offs available. They are Rota Grids in Steel Grey. The offset is 48 so you need wheel spacers to run them.

I'm autocrossing 2 years now and tell you... it's a blast. First you need is good set of tires. I'm running STS class and got Falken Azenis. Ideal for STS. Good lines, late braking and run as smooth as possible. I'm running my ST and having so much fun. Plus I'v got a 5 speed swap finally so it's a really great.
Check out our SCCA side..... SWVRSCCA.COM We'v got some pix and videos and results. Next event is tomorrow. Can't wait... |

load the video into windows movie maker. if you have XP, it should be installed already.
drag the video into the time line below. then click file/save movie file. then go through the steps to compress and re-save the vid. for the compression, just leave it at "best quality for playback on my computer" -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Thanks. From my experience, the one thing that I can tell you that seat time experience is key. It was stunning how much better I got as I did each run. On the street, I never take my car to the limits of traction so seeing how it handles in those situations is a new experience. The only thing I can say is that I highly recommend this experience. It was only $30 too.

Thanks for the comments guys. Going to the autocross was a lot of fun and I plan to return. I highly encourage others to give it a try. Also, car modifications are not necessary to improve your driving skills have a good time (although more power does increase the fun factor!).
