Show me your Lindseys
Looking for pictures of 17" Lindsey Fuchs (or equal) on RS/carrera/SC bodied cars.
While you're at it let me know what size/brand rubber you run on the track. Thanks, Don

recommend a search for 'BB2' 'BB1' or 'scruffy', you will find what you are looking for.
I run 275 40 17's on the back and 245 40 17's on the front

I ran both 8x9x17 (street) and 8x10x17 (track) on my old SC-flared RS clone. These are the 8x9's:
  I don't think 9's are avialable any more, but 9.5's are. Here are the 8x10x17's:  And here are the wheels by themselves. 8x10x17:  8x9x17:

Jack,
Did you by chance weigh those Lindsey's? I am tossing up between 951 8X16" and 9X16" Fuchs, or 17" Lindsey's. I'm currently running 8&9.5X18" Simmons and I want to drop some rotating mass. Thank you.

Lindseys are about 1/2 to 1 pound lighter than the comparable width Fuchs. The barrel part is thinner than the same part on the Fuchs.
17x8 = 16 pounds 17x9 = 17 pounds 17x10 = 18 pounds 17x11 = 19 pounds

Thank you Jack.
My current rears, with tyres (9.5X18" - Dunlop DZ02G 265/35-18), are 48.4 pounds. Dropping that kind of rotating mass should lower my lap times and further hide my limited driving ability.

WOW - can you tell us anymore about Mike's IROC?? What are the rear flares going to be? FG? What's the finish on the wheels? Does he anodize now? Doug

Thanks! Mike's is a VERY cool project! Any updates on yours? Surely there must be some paint on yours by now?? Looking forward to the photos! Doug
