Step 1
Join a local drag racing organization. You will find a lot of trading that goes on between racers who want to try different kinds of equipment. Also, by joining a group, you'll also get ideas of where to buy the equipment you need.

Step 2
Contact professional racing teams and find out what their maintenance schedule is for certain equipment. While a professional may purchase new wheels every couple months, those used wheels might be just right for your car.

Step 3
Shop online from industry-specific sites that deal strictly with selling drag racing parts. These sites tend to attract a more knowledgeable following and you'll find descriptions of the products to be more detailed.

Step 4
Find a good mechanic who can help you when you run into issues that are above your experience level. Ask your mechanic to keep an eye out for equipment as it moves through his shop. Use him as your lookout for good used parts and equipment.
