wheels

Post by tattoo »

can anyone tell me what size the firestorm wheels are..i know they're 17inch but whats the width of the front and rear rims....i only ask because i've been looking on various custom wheel sites in the US and got to thinking if it would be possible to have a set made with "firestorm" or "vtr" cut as spokes...

thanks griffo but i think the 70/55 is the tyre sidewall depth,what i'm looking for is the width of the bare rim....something like 14x5j...5j being 5inch bare wheel width on cars.

it comes to mind that they're 17x3.5inch front and 17x6inch rear...can anyone confirm this please

I'm almost sure mik_str has a 6" rear wheel (a PVM mag wheel) in his Firestorm, you could always send him a PM.
