If you can list your relavent mods on the car (springs, shocks, rolled fenders, etc). We don't need to know if you have a blow off valve. Mods if you can make this a sticky! :smile:
I'll start off:
Setup #1
Wheels: D-Force EmPower
Front: 18x8.5 +40
Spacer: none
Rear: 18x9.5 +43
Spacer: none
Tires:
Front Yokohama Advan Neova 255/40/18
Rear Hankook RS2 Z212 265/35/18
Suspension/Fender Mods/Camber:
-KW V3 lowered ~1.5" front, ~1" rear
-Vorshlag front camber plates (brings the tires "in" more, away from the fender lip), ~2 deg neg camber front & rear
-slight roll front & rear
-had to cut some of the plastic out from the inner fender well
Notes:
Rubbed front fender where fender meets bumper
Rubbed rears slightly under hard cornering or on hard bumps on the street
(Rubbing or anything else to note)
Setup#2
Wheels: D-Force EmPower
Front: 18x8.5 +40
Spacer: none
Rear: 18x9.5 +43
Spacer: none
Tires:
Front Toyo R1R 255/35/18
Rear Yokohama Advan Neova 255/40/18
Suspension/Fender Mods/Camber:
same as above
Notes:
-Fronts are perfect now with mods from setup #1. Can't say for sure if I would need to do any of the above if I started off with the 255/35/18 Toyo R1R to begin with.
-Rears rubbed badly. Could not run the rear 255/40/18 Neova setup with the wheel. The 255 Neova was wider than the 265 Hankook because of the square shoulder of the Neova. The Hankook has a rounded shoulder so it would only rub under lots of compression.
