BTCC wheel sizes
Hi,
Can someone please tell me what the BTCC wheel size was for the 1992-1993 season? I know when they went down the super touring route that they were 19" rims, however I have seen some pics of the older cavalier and they don't really look like 19" wheels, they look more like 17". Can anyone confirm? Thanks, Ben. |

The info you are after can be found here.
In summary, a mixture of 18 and 19 inch wheels (18 on the Cavalier). More information regarding the 850 can be found here. Specifically, 'Wheels are from OZ (18-inch) ' Of note, the Super Touring regs, which were derived from the BTCC 2L regs, state that: '4.5 Wheels and tyres 4.5.1) The maximum width of the complete wheel is of 9 inches; the complete wheel diameter is not to exceed 650 mm. [...] 4.5.2) Wheels : The design and diameter are free, as is the type of attachment, but wheels made partially or entirely from composite materials are prohibited.' |
