wheels sizes on Pettit Banzai cars..or cars with fender flares?!?!?!
i really need to know the exact wheel size and offset Pettit uses on their Banzai cars, or others who are using their fender flares.
i have tried calling Pettit and i get the 'sales guy'...who i guess works out of his house? and Cam is impossible to reach.
TIA

One of the Banzai articles lists the wheels and tires as 18x8.5 (225/40) and 18x10 (285/35). They don't list the offset.
That setup seems like understeer city to me....
Better to run 18x9 with 255/35 up front and then 18x10 with 285/30 in the rear. The front offset should be +45 to +50. With stock fenders, you would want the rear 18x10s to also be +45 to +50. Assuming the wheels are sticking out an inch farther than stock with the fender flares, that would mean an offset of +20 to +25. I'm not sure though...

I believe they are 12" rears on the street car w/ 315's. Offset was 25-ish... wish i could remember exactly.
The racecar only runs 10" rears (i think) w/ those flares because they are mandated to run 275/35/18's in SpeedGT.
You would think it would handle sorta strange without front flares to match.
