Ideal For

  • Professional and semi-professional circuit racing in NZ and Australia
  • Drivers where minimum weight is a priority
  • Motorsport Australia (CAMS) and MSNZ events requiring FIA 8859-2024 or 8860
  • GT, endurance, and touring car competition

FIA 8860 vs FIA 8859 Carbon — Which Do I Need?

Both use carbon shell construction but FIA 8860-2018 has stricter impact testing and is required for specific professional series (Supercars, WEC, WRC). FIA 8859-2024 carbon helmets meet the requirements for the vast majority of NZ and AU motorsport. If your series mandates 8860, see our dedicated Stilo FIA 8860 Carbon Helmets collection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the lightest Stilo carbon helmet?
The Stilo ST6 Carbon FIA 8860 is the lightest option — carbon shell construction combined with the 8860 standard produces the lowest weight helmet in the Stilo range. Contact us for current weight specifications by model.

Are Stilo carbon helmets approved for Motorsport Australia (CAMS) events?
Yes — Stilo carbon helmets certified to FIA 8859-2024 and FIA 8860-2018 are accepted by Motorsport Australia. Always check your specific category regulations for the exact standard required.

What is the difference between a carbon and composite Stilo helmet?
Carbon helmets use a carbon fibre shell — lighter and stiffer than composite MSF/Kevlar construction. Carbon is the choice for professional competitors and those prioritising minimum weight. See our Stilo Composite Helmets for the more accessible price point option.

Do you ship Stilo carbon helmets to Australia?
Yes — we ship fast across New Zealand and Australia with genuine stock and full NZ & AU warranty support.
