1M/M3 track wheels

am looking for a new set of track wheels...

preferably 19s, but wouldn't mind 18s either.
width: 10" up front and 11" at the back.

any suggestions are welcome.

TE37 SL is what I use for the track. If you're looking for something cheaper, Apex would fit the bill. GL.

I use APEX EC7 and prefer the 18" size. EC7 will fit BBK if you get one in the future.

Why 19's for track wheels?
Agree with others about TE37 or Apex.

It would be better to go 18" due to better and cheaper tire selection. Apex ARC 8 is a strong, light, and proven track wheel.
