I'm pretty sure that was Rishie's (ARD T2's) car. Here's my old FC on the wheels I bought from him.

Bluem, I'm not sure, but if you PM ARD T2, I'm sure he can point you in the right direction. He's the resident wheel guru.

90FC, they're 17x8f and 9r, wrapped in 235-40f and 245-40r BFG KDWs. The 8's in front are nice because the spoke pattern makes plenty of room for a big brake kit. See how the spokes stick out a little bit compared to the rears?

RPF1 SBC finish 17x9.5+18 (f&R) fronts have 3mm spacer due to my wide tires. 255/40 on all four. wide fenders required front and back, some negative chamber up front with coilovers. If you don't have the power, don't do it. So, yes it is possible...

Direct linkage FTW! lol.

That's shiny.


Heh, so shiny that it looks like someone's leaning on your fuel filler door.

thanx! turbo23

im looking for a set up that can use the same wheel on all 4's maybe 17x9.5 all arround, this way i can rotate the tires between heats , i can only use 6 new stiker tires per race and 2 used tires.

will i be able to fit 17x9.5 all round with the same tire size with rolled fenders?

errr fronts would be very tough to fit. Even with a roll, you could probably pick up some wide front fenders. Rears would be fine

you should run the 17x9 +22 or +15 all around if you need ONE wheel size for all four corners.

those are such nice wheels!

Turbo23, you need to take even more pics
