Now that it looks like there will never be any more rallies to work on in the northeast/mid-Atlantic areas, and I will no longer need my skid plate (which would not fit even with the low profile of the Swave-Summit stuff), I am considering those same braces as well.

How are your KE Motorsport T12s holding up to track days/sessions?

Do they get any chips/'peppering' from track debris, small pebbles or 'marbles' at all??

No not at all. I intended to ceramic coat the faces but never did. They’re still flawless after two sets of AR1s. I think they’re the best wheels for this car. Light, strong, convex face for BBKs and inexpensive.

Look man, I am building all new suspension for a shoot out with this car. You better be working all night to get this car on the trailer and to Barber. I know I currently have no front suspension finished. LOL. I will be pulling a late night.
😂 Bummer your hauler broke. My Fiesta wasn’t done so I took the e46 and broke the diff bushings lol. Cars..

@M-Sport fan what happened to your rally series?? I was hoping to see it grow nationally.

The ARA (American Rally Association) series is still very much alive and well, and possibly even growing in some areas of this land.

But as far as the northeast region goes (which ironically has a high proportion of actual registered rally crews, and is the home of the prep shop for Subaru Motorsports USA, Vermont Sportscar) goes, there are NO National events, and it has been that way for the last 4 years or so.

I really do not feel like first driving 10-15 hours to Ohio, or Missouri to then work on/volunteer at an event at 70 years of age.

AGREED!! [thumb]

I just wish that Phil would offer some 16x7s or 16x8s in these wheels for our fitment to replace my Dekagrams, which yes are OK, but I like the aesthetics of the T12s much more (and the KE Motorsport T12s are just as strong, if not even stronger than the Konigs).

The available T12 17x8s are even hubcentric for us (just like the original TD Pro Race 1.2s), with NO reducers needed, unlike the Dekas and many other aftermarket wheel options we could possibly use.
