Anyone have the wheel and tire specs of Jackass @ Optima??

[JohnC]

Ok, I give up...I was searching and searching...Anyone have the front and rear wheel and tire specs he used at Optima this year?

Very curious since I know its tough to find a 20 inch racing tire....

Thanks

pics...numbers...sizes... would be great--thanks.

They weren't 20's.

[JohnC]

They weren't 20's.

Yeah, I figured that. lol....thanks..

I'm sure Charley will pop in to answer. You could also send him a PM

As I remember they were Z06 sizes as opposed to ZR1 sizes.. Off the shelf OZ wheels from Tire Rack.

[JohnC]

Thanks Steve and Rob....I didn't want to bother Charley or Mark...I just thought I could find the place I thought I saw it on here...

If they were A6 or R6 in Z06 sizes, does an 18" front rim fit over ZR1 brakes? ... looks like the wheel is only available in 19" in 20" though.....

Yes they were off the shelf units from Tire rack by OZ for a Z06. Don't know where my paperwork is that shows the specs though. Trying to clean up 3 cars for Barrett-Jackson so might not get to it for a bit.

What cars are you taking to Barrett-Jackson? Did you ever sell Camaro X?

Camaro X was sold.
Red Witch is going to BJ and will be sold on Thursday...not sure what else he is taking?

[clill]

Taking the Red Witch and 2 32 Fords.

I really wanted Camaro X, but I didn't have 2qtr money only had 4qtr money:mad: Hope you have bidding wars on all three at BJ. I've never read anything about Red Witch, what's its story?

Happy New year car nuts,

All great cars!
Wasn't the roadster on a TV show or something? It looks very familuar......

I still can't accept that the Red Witch is being sold....I thought it was a keeper - forever keeper.

Red Witch was Hot Rod Magazines "Car of the Year" in 1996. Stielow built it for One Lap of America. Car that made a bunch of people buy Camaro's.

19x12 Bright Silver Paint O.Z. Ultraleggera HLT

Ok, thanks. So I'm puzzled as to which Hoosier you choose a6 or r6? 265 or 295? That's what tirerack shows available.... sorry to be a pain.... you have an awesome car there..... Happy New Year..

[clill]

I ran 265's on the front as I think we figured 295 wouldn't fit. A6's

Yeah, I guess that was the only way to go... Congrats--on your Optima run--if you have pics lying around I'd love to see'em.

Good Luck at Barrett Jackson!!!

Love to meet up with you and Mark if and when you come to the Detroit area...Autorama?

Take Care,
