Do Firestorm Wheels fit anything else?

Post by daveuprite »

Does anyone know if Firestorm wheels fit any other bikes? As a direct fit without custom spacers, that is.

CBR600F perhaps? Or early hornet 900? Just guesses, but much appreciated if anyone who really knows can give me an answer..

Cheers, Dave

I believe they fit early fireblades and are used as an easy upgrade to a 17inch front wheel. its also a straight swap for the rear.
seeing as some 6 spoke nc30/35, vfr750, cbr600, front wheels fit the storm, different years for different models tho, so homework is needed to get the correct year/model.
the storm front wheel will obviously fit those models.
the rear wheels aren't so easy to swap because iirc they're a 5.5inch wheel and more modern bikes run a 6inch rear.
HEY YOU GUYS!!!!!!

The firestorm wheels (all years) are a direct fit (and a upgrade ) for the 1994-1997 cbr900rr fireblade .
The front wheel fits others but not the rear .
There's a list in the workshop knowledge base sticky section that will help a little more
