Nice build ezeedee...looking forward to photographing the final result.
I did ferodo 2500s, fluid and ss lines on my 135 and that combo rocked but when the ferodos are cold, they squeak a little on slow braking like a ID check stop. For the 1M, I did fluids and shims but at the end of the track day I felt the brakes didn't have enough grab so will upgrade my pads, possibility to ferodos or Hawk.

It depends on ALS. no guarantees.
Im thinking about switching the front tires to 245/35/18 PSS's. They are a little wider, and a little shorter (25.4" v 24.8") so as long as my width isnt an issue, i will be able to get a little lower in the front. It wont be as much of a stretch, but i think im gonna give it a try. I was looking around on the "official wheel and tire thread" and there are more than a couple people squeezing 245's on the front with 8.5 wheels. The only downside i can see, is not having any stretch at all, which is purely asthetic, so i can live with that. What do you guys think? |

You'll def have to roll the fenders and I think the the most you could go is 235/265 without any serious rubbin especially if your lowered.

If you go to ATU's website you can look up other non standard tire and wheel size combinations recommended for the E82 Coupe.
235 on an 17x8 inch wheel was the largest they showed.

Its on an 8.5" someone on this forum is running 245 khumos on a +45 offset 8.5 with no rubbing. If it doesnt work, ill put the 235's on.
I will put them on and see how low i can go. If i dont like the stance, ill drop to 235's. If they had 235/35 pss's, id rock them, i dont like how fat the sidewall is on the 40 series. |
