Question Track wheels

Hey there

I'm going to order some 18" Fikse wheels for my track tires.
What are the stock widths and offsets?

Thanks

You're not going to want the stock offsets, most Fikse dealers will custom measure your setup and send Fikse info on backspacing, front clearance, etc. I use 8 1/2 and 10 1/2 Fikse Profil 13s, can get you my measurement info from my wheel guy this weekend if you like. With this setup you can run 245 F and anywhere from 285-295 and possibly 305 R.

Thanks

I will have to stick to 8" and 9" wheels or I'll jump to a different class in POC rules. I'm sure I can run 245s and 275 on these rims widths if there is fender clearance. Anyone doing this already?

Never mind, I just read the answer (no problem with clearance) on another post.

Thanks guyz

Yes, I run this with Hoosiers and RA1's. No clearance problem. Tons of extra space. You can actually fit bigger tires, but this is best size for stock wheels.

since a 10" wide 19 inch wheel is available factory can you run a 10 inch 18? or a 17 inch wheel I dont think they care if you go smaller?

If POC rules are like SCCA stock class rules, aftermarket wheels must be the same size as factory OE or option wheels in both diameter and width. For SCCA, that means 8 & 9X18, 8 & 9.5X19, or 8.5 & 10X19. I was hoping they would allow 8.5 & 10X18 aftermarket wheels, but no dice.
