Default Need specs

Does anybody know what the wheel and tires specs they are using on this ISF? I have a GSF and wanting that same look without rubbing and rolling the panels.

I put on RCF wheels and had to roll my fenders only in the rear to get rid of rubbing over bumps. I believe you will have the same results with GSF wheels.

^^^^^Don't think you understood the question. However, the OP doesn't seem to understand that the wheel specs are much different from the ISF to the GSF, and what looks good on an ISF will probably not look good on a GSF. The RCF/GSF wheels have a more aggressive offset. I also have RCF wheels. Fronts are fine, but are .3" further out than the stockers. I also needed to roll my fenders flat to fit 295/30 tires in the back.

If the OP really wants to know the answer, I would contact one of the forum vendors who handles Novel, and ask him to check with Novel.

^^^^ Thanks LOU. You are right I didn't read that right. I probably shouldn't be posting while trying to work at the same time and waiting for queries to run....

Good EYE! It's a picture that I flipped (L to R) when editing/importing it, the nose was pointing left. I noticed the other day that this makes the F look backwards. Mirror effect.

To OP:

The GSF wheel well is much larger than the ISF so if you're looking for similiar fitment you will have to go 20". The wheels are Advan GTs in gloss black. You might run into a little trouble acquiring them because it's my understanding that the main distributor cut them from their product line.

This is Gordon Ting's GSF.

^^^^The OD is the same from ISF ti GSF, 19" The GSF wheels are indeed wider than the early ISFs. Rears - 9" vs 10". Front - 8" vs 9". Stock offsets also more aggressive on the GSF.

I thought you would know by now after sustained high speed the F flips backward, my car even tilts the axis of the earth when I plant it, now that's torque.

Sounds like a southern hemisphere issue.

If you engage the Flux capacitor the F will flip over.
