Info
If you're an IMCA hobby stock or street stock racer, Bassett's collection of DOT-approved racing wheels are for you. They feature the same quality construction and high strength of our Cup/Busch/Truck certified wheel. Bassett DOT wheels are also the lightest on the market. Since the wheels conform to the DOT specifications, they are legal for the street! When outfitting your car or truck with custom wheels, don't settle for lower quality knock-offs. Bassett Racing Wheels are race track tough. PLEASE NOTE: Bassett Racing Wheels are lug-centric, which means the wheel is constructed and trued off of the bolt circle. The center hub bore hole cannot be used to balance Bassett Racing Wheels. We recommend using an experienced tire mounter with a bolt pattern adapter plate that allows for balancing off of the bolt circle. Bassett Racing Wheels also require 45 degree chamfer lug nuts.
Notes
The following must be considered when using Bassett wheels for on highway / street use applications when the wheel/tire assembly is being balanced. Bassett Wheels are lug centric, which means they are built off of and must be balanced using the bolt circle and NOT the wheel center hole. Improper use of a tire balancer that centers the wheel on the hub bore, not the bolt circle will result in an incorrect reading for rim runout, as the center hole is not in the perfect center of the bolt pattern. The only machine capable of performing a lug centric balance is the Hunter GSP 9700 with the flange plate bolt circle adapter and no centering cone.

- What is the correct lug nut to use and how tight should I torque the lug nuts?
Bassett Racing Wheels require a hardened steel, 1" oversize, open-ended lug nut with a 45 degree seat chamfer. Before going on the track, always use a torque wrench and torque lug nuts to 85 ft.-lbs. For brand new wheels, make sure to re torque after first use because as the powder coat paint gets worn off, it can cause the lug nuts to loosen slightly.
- I want to balance my new Bassett Wheels and tires. How do I ensure an accurate balance?
Bassett Racing Wheels are lug-centric, which means the wheel is constructed and trued off of the bolt circle. The center hub bore hole cannot be used to balance Bassett Racing Wheels. We recommend using an experienced tire mounter with a bolt pattern adapter plate that allows for balancing off of the bolt circle.
