Nailed it!
Are you wanting to be quite competitive with your dd tire setup? If so then yeah I’d shell out the money for 17” tires and good 200tw tires. In fact you could keep your current 16” set as dd and just swap out wheels for each event. That way you dont need to unnecessarily wear your expensive tires out and you have good traction in poor weather with the dd set
that’s exactly what I’m doing, you nailed it. Picked up these Ap2 wheels yesterday for $450. After I burn through these Hankooks (225/255) I’ll put a nice set of 200tw for track use. Then I’ll probably get something decent for dd, but I’ll just let Firestone mount something comfortable with lifetime road hazard. My town is notorious for tire damage, lot of roofing and construction year round.

Overall condition isn’t too bad, some curbing that I may/not have repaired. I might do it myself if I decide to paint them before I put new rubber on them.

That's a good deal. I paid $200 for a single front AP2V1 with way more curb rash. One of my fronts is cracked on multiple spokes and I'm unwilling to drive it until I can get a new wheel on. It's been a long wait for the wheel to arrive
