Wide 5 Wheels
Wide 5 wheels built around the wide 5 bolt pattern used on many dirt track and oval racing cars. They're sold in different diameters and widths, with wheel sizes such as 15 x 10, 15 x 12 and 15 x 14 covering different tyre widths and chassis setups.
Back spacing is specified on each wheel (5 inch back space in this range) and determines how far the wheel sits in or out relative to the hub, which affects track width and tyre clearance. Some wheels are set up with an outer bead lock for extra security on the tyre at speed, and some come with a cover over the bead lock. Choose width and diameter to suit your tyre and chassis combination, and check back spacing matches what your car is set up for.

Frequently asked questions
What does back spacing affect?
Back spacing determines how far in or out the wheel sits relative to the mounting hub, which changes the car's track width and how the tyre clears the chassis and suspension. You need to match it to what your car is already set up for.
What's a bead lock for?
A bead lock clamps the tyre bead to the wheel so the tyre doesn't roll off the rim under hard cornering loads. An outer bead lock cover adds a bit of extra protection over the bead lock ring.
How do I choose between the different widths?
Wheel width should match the tyre width you're running and the clearance available in your chassis. Wider wheels (such as 15 x 14) suit wider tyres, while narrower wheels (15 x 10) suit narrower setups.
