Question SPF and Wheels

I'm getting ready to place a deposit on a Superformance roller. I know they make their own wheels using the pin and knockoff system. I'm also told the that traditional wheels with lugs will fit on the pins, but no one at the dealership seems to know (or wants to tell me) what size lug pattern is used. I'm going to get a set of the knockoffs, but might also like a set of flashy 17" B&Bs or something similar.

Anyone know what size lug pattern the SPF comes with? Any info concerning offsets/brands for 17' wheels on a SPF would also be appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve C

I have a set of Boyd Cottington 17s that I have not put on the car yet. I was told to get 17x9 and 17x11 with 41/2x 5 bolt pattern. 4.625 backspacing. Will let you know if they fit in about a week.

i would suggest you talk with your SPF dealer about wheel options and such, they are in the best position to know what fits, what tires fit, and that sort of thing. If you run a low profile 17 inch, they may suggest a different rear diff ratio, things like that.

No one knows them like the guys that build them.

Since you live in East Lansing, MI, the SPF dealer is Dynamic in Ross, OH. Talk to Dean or your contact there and tell them that you want 17" wheels instead of the 15". I am sure that they will be will set it up for you.
