18" Superformance wheels for a Kirkham
 
Has anyone with a Kirkham tried a set of 18" Superformance wheels? I am looking for an extra set of 18" for auto crossing and the track. Superformance offers 18x8 18x9.5 and 18x9.5 18x10.5. Thanks, Darren

Update to the 18's.

All of the new 18's coming from Superformance are 18x11, and 18x9.5

Superformance wheels are 5 pin and I think the Kirkham wheels are 6 pin

Calbullet, You are correct. Kirkham's are 6 Pin. Maybe 17" Vintage Wheels. Any Kirkham owners with 17" Vintage Wheels out there?

There was another Kirkham that was for sale in Florida, silver paint with a silver interior with silver leather dash, and 17" wheels, but the new owner decided to put Billboards and 15's back on it after he bought off eBay.

Just not too many out there with 17's and I'd bet with 18's you would be IT. Nothing wrong with being a trailblazer, like your fliptop, but are there 18's with 6-pin available?

I'll keep looking. Not too many options for 6-pin wheels. I will be using the larger wheels for track events. I'll stick with the 15" for daily drives and our cross country trip to Washington. Are you going to join David K. and myself? We are planning the "FreedomCruise" for this July. Peace, Darren

Unfortunately, no. Life is WAY too busy and I would need the Kirkhams, Patrick, Rick Lake, D-CEL, Brent, Barry R, Keith and Chas to follow me with several tool boxes and every spare part known to mankind. :LOL:

Have you seen the 18" BBS wheels Morris put on his #257 over on Gasholes?

Darren,
I have a set of 18" wheels custom made for my Kirkham with 6 pin (see pic). They are 9 & 11x18. The car handles very good with theses wheels. I have a 2nd set for selling. If you're interested, just contact me...
Best regards, Stephan
