So if your wheels are wider than stock you have to run stf?

I think they can't be wider than 7.5"; the off-set can't be more than 6mm. If it is you have to go STF just for wheels

You're correct that you cannot run bigger then a 7.5" wheel but that is in STF. For H stock and HS you cannot aftermarket wheels all together. HS you can only run a street (200 TW) tire for class.

technically yes... Long answer is, same width wheel but can go +-1" diameter and whatever combination you're running is within +-7mm of the stock offset, then you're HS legal

no more than 6.5" and the update is 7mm for offset.

you're allowed to run aftermarket wheels in HS as long as it has the same width and within +-7.00mm of stock offset. For further clarification, in HS it has to have a 200TW rating or above. The tire to have now are the RE71R and Rival S. Both pay for contingency.

but here are some pictures of me during the Devens Championship Tour. I think I'm getting better at this.

Took first place in STF yesterday and PAXd 40th overall out of 135 cars. Considering the tires that the car has on it (Bridgestone Turanzas that I think came stock on a Honda Insight) and the absolutely amazing level of competition that the Kansas City region brings, I'm pretty damn happy. I'm in STF because of suspension mods.

No video as I haven't been able to find my GoPro in two years. I'm hoping the event photographers grabbed a few of me at least.

You'll do fine! Just try to grid 2 rows behind me so you can get a ride shotgun with me. It'll give you a good idea on how the course flows before you run.

I had a little fun on Sunday on a road course/autox event. It was just for fun, not an SCCA event. The Fit is still stock with just the blower kit.

Hit GPS recorded 60mph in 3rd before the sweeper. Stayed in 3rd and managed speed from there to the finish. 15in wheels limit me to 54mph on the rev limiter in 2nd.
