High & Wide

That's how I roll...

CCW 9's and 12's with 245's and 305's

Could have gone with wider tires but wanted to make sure everything cleared allright with the first set of track tires. Also went with 25.0 inch diameters for 4% lower gearing. Car feels really alive with the low gearing and superlight wheel/tires. Did the TPMS as well on this set.

Getting alignment next week. Front camber is at full postitive now (outside of slots) and at 1 deg negative. Should be able to get at least -1.5 with strut mounts at inside setting which will also tip front wheels more under fender.

I like the full ride height, no interest in lowering it. I just sold my racecars and really like driving this car on the street also.

Maybe I'll raise it 3 or 4 inches and slap my offroad tire set on. Would be great out in the everglades.
