Bad Azz.

So just to review. You are running stock suspension with no changes but 5mm spacers front and rear? Also stock size and offset wheels? Camber maxed to factory settings?

I might be totally off on this, just trying to remember.

Koni d/a with stock springs and perches.

-1.5 camber, no plates

So this setup will work on a stock car with a 5mm spacer on a stock wheel
I plan to run a 305 on the rear.

no issues other than the 3 days for the tire install ...

I imagine that no spacer would be needed for a 9.5" wheel or 10" wheel with the correct offset.

glad it all worked out!

Me too. Figured they were going to have to be rears but they worked.

Now, i ordered the 305 after the test fit but. They may be on back order....

The koni's are a one off due to being for SCCA Stock class they are made to makeup for the lack of increasing spring rates and have the stock spring perch on them, so my views on them.

With that said, I can dial or out understeer over oversteer with 1/4 turn, so the adjustment is setup too tight at this point.

The car is totally unsorted at this point and ran its best on the stock setup at the 1st of last year.

Looks like no one has any 305 re11s left. Probably just going to replace my oe rears with them. My oe fronts are still good enough to daily for a while.

Just waiting on scca to figure out their classing for next year.

Moved the new tires to the rear with the old fronts back on the car while the scca sorts out classing.

It is like i through a boat anchor out trying to turn the car right now. I am going to increase rebound in the rear a little to dial some of the under steer out.

Planning on moving to some 18x10 s on all 4 corners and buy new tire of some sort later. It would be nice to get a rivals in a decent size.

305 re11s are listed back again in tire rack but as special order not in stock, maybe you can check with them again.
