wheels of csx 2001
i would like to know what wheel and tire size are on csx 2001...
as i found out on pictures the front tires are 225/65 R15, CR6ZZ
on 6,5'' x15'' FIA wheels i suppose
the back wheels might be 8,5'' x15'' FIA wheels with 245/60 R15 or 275/55 R15 ?
they are not as large as on other FIA or FIA style cars, i think
i was looking for that wheel but there are only 7,5 '' and 9,5'' trigo FIA wheels
available, does anybody know where to buy 6,5'' and 8,5 '' ?
thanks for further formations

You don`t mention what type you want, but if it`s pin drive as per 2001 , then Kress Cobra is the only vendor.( Fran) Made in magnesium as well.

Ask John at CompClassics about his wheels. They look like what he has on his FIA:

Thank you, Larry.
Yes, the wheels are the same (originals) but I believe Bruce powder coated or painted his, mine have the DOW coating on them.
I really need to retake that photo as our new tire graphics process is much better now!

Correct sized FIA's are magnesium.
Very costly, require more maintenance and look different than alloy.
I have both but run magnesium.
BTW John's wheels are awesome in the first person.

I believe the Trigo FIAs are 7.5x15 front and 9.5x15 rear, I have had sets of Trigos and PSE (Phil Schmidt) wheels.
