In general, most autox cars use 7" fronts. Some even have 8" fronts.
Whatever you do make sure that you can keep the overall width of the car
at less than 55", including sidewall bulges. The offsets will depend on
your car's suspension design. It seems that many cars have a 5" backset
in front and 3" in rear, if my memory is correct. Basically the wider
front rims help to eliminate some push out of the car in slower corners.
Hope that helps.

What is the rim and tire size used on the front in Solo2? Are they the
same as the rear? Different offsets? Anything?
Thanks gentlemen!
BTW, I haven't written much, and some of you may recall my asking
about f500 back in November/December of last year. I don't talk much I
guess. Anyways, after doing a lot of reading on this site, I decided
to buy George Harmuth's old Zink. Picked it up March 12. Finally got
all the little bugs worked out. There was a fair bit more involved
than what I anticipated in switching the car to primarily Solo 2 from
a road course warrior. Took the car out on the street for a test drive
and after monthsof work I was able to literally smoke the rear tires
from a launch! Yah baby!
I know I sound like a freaking 17 year old rather than a 50 year old.
Oh well, I loved it!
