F4/F4i guys: Help please

[slo_tom]

Hello there. I've got a 98 F3 that currently has a bent front wheel. I am looking for a replacement. So far I haven't been able to find one so I've been looking for other wheels. The only problem is that I am not sure about the fit of wheels from other bikes.

If you have got a chance, could you please measure a couple things on your front wheel for me?

-The bolt spacing of the front rotors (The diameter of the rotor bolt circle from center to center of opposite bolts)
-The width of the front wheel hub (from the outside of one dust seal to the other)
-The distance between the rotor mounting surfaces

I would appreciate it as it would increase my chances of finding an affordable replacement wheel.

On my F3 the bolt circle diameter is 2 and 15/16". The hub width is 5.5" which is guess is the same as the listed wheel width. The distance between the rotor mounting surfaces is 4".

Thanks,
Thomas

I think you can just look at your tire size to get the wheel size. Not sure though.

Good find. I'll hit that guy up and see what he's got.

Thanks.

There are 7 on ebay right now man. I just searched "f4i wheel". Looks like they run 80-120 bucks with rotors.

There's a bunch of them on there, and that's why I want to find out if I can swap one onto my F3. There aren't a lot of straight F3 wheels around.
