Challenge racecar with spacers? Looks like it...

I don´t know if this has been covered before...

I´m still new to the site and am still searching and surfing here every day gathering as much info as possible.

Ok... from the pictures it looks like it... no way those cross spoke challenge wheels would stick out that far without spacers.

Anyone know how wide they are front and back? And what size slicks are on the wheels? Camber settings?

Any info and specs on the new 2009 Challenge Cup car in general would be highly apreciated. Maybe there is a thread already (I havn´t found it yet)

Thanks for any input.

Here the pics:

There are a lot of differences between the street car and the race car.

Regarding your question the Challange Car has much wider wheels then the
street car!

Great Picture!

Now that car has some real brake ducts...as opposed to the cheesy retrofit being offered now.

Anyway, the real Challenge wheels are Borbet 17x7.5...don't know the offset.
