Looks great! Did the brake line bracket interfere at all?

Man that goes so hard, going to look great with some thick track rubber. Any rear shots too?

This is the second set of RA Forged wheels I’ve seen. Who sells/distributes these?

I’ve tried searching but can’t locate who sells these. The only thing that pops up is a random Instagram page.

For those considering it I’d recommend adding a power steering cooler if you want to run a full slick.
Rack seals have been cooked in the Evoras from doing so without one.

If you can, please weigh them before you slap tires on them. Even if just with a home scale. It'll be good to see what these wheels are coming in at.

That's pretty good.

They could be lighter but i wanted them to be as strong as possible for track use.

I checked your website and I don’t see one.
Which kit do you recommend?
I would like to use slicks.
Can you recommend the specs for 18s and what slick sizes do you recommend?
It would be nice to go as wide as possible in the front to have the same in rear so tires can be rotated. What makes the most sense?

What is the advantage of the smaller wheels? I remember when wheels on cars were typically smaller and fitted with larger profile tyres. The trend was to modify cars with larger wheels to improve the handling.
Now the trend is to go the other way?

wider selection of semi slicks/slicks and usually cheaper in the sizing we want. Saving monies in the long term if tracking more than a few times a year.
