Wheel 14x7 D-Hole 5x 4.5in 3in BS Black

The Wheel 14x7 D-Hole 5x4.5in 3in BS Black by BASSETT is a purpose-built, lightweight racing wheel designed for enthusiasts who demand precision fitment and proven performance on both street and competition vehicles. This 14-inch diameter wheel delivers the classic aesthetic of vintage motorsports while maintaining modern engineering standards. Built for drivers who understand that wheel choice directly impacts handling characteristics, braking response, and overall vehicle dynamics, the BASSETT 47SF3 offers authentic D-hole styling with meticulous engineering that refuses compromise.

At 14x7 inches, this wheel provides the ideal balance between reducing unsprung weight and maintaining adequate tire sidewall support for predictable handling. The 5x4.5-inch bolt pattern ensures compatibility with classic American muscle cars and modern compact platforms sharing this lug configuration. A 3-inch backspace positions the wheel for optimal suspension geometry and brake clearance, critical factors when tuning suspension response or upgrading brake components. At 17.4 lbs per wheel, the lightweight construction minimizes rotational inertia, improving acceleration, deceleration, and overall agility—benefits any mechanic recognizes immediately during track work or spirited driving. The D-hole design reduces material while maintaining structural rigidity, and the black finish resists corrosion while delivering a clean, aggressive appearance.

Mechanics and enthusiasts upgrading compact, economy, or classic vehicles typically select this wheel when seeking to improve throttle response, reduce brake fade, and sharpen steering feedback. Installation requires verification of the 5x4.5-inch lug pattern match and confirmation that the 3-inch backspace clears brake calipers and suspension components on your specific platform. The BASSETT engineering delivers consistent quality that justifies investment in serious modifications, whether for autocross competition, weekend cruising, or comprehensive chassis tuning. Proper lug nut torque specifications and wheel balancing are essential for safe, vibration-free operation.
