Time to upgrade the suspension ...

Ape Factory

It definitely isn't enough tire Which is why I'm going to a square setup with 19x9.5" rims and 255's all around at the very least. I can go wider (not as wide as the Z) but then I'm looking at large increases in unsprung weight. I've had traction issues on acceleration from day one with the stock 348hp. I partly blame the Bridgestones and the asphalt they use here but some of it has to be suspension geometry and OEM alignment specs. Can't imagine having C63 power and 245's in the rear.

This is why I like the forum a lot of insightful posts.

After that, I will be looking into the harder spring option. As my next tire setup will be re71r or mpsc2 with most likely 275/35 front 285/35 rear, unless I found the suspension compeling the stagger, I will be going for an equal stagger to my current one but with wider and stickier tires, in any case, harder springs will benefit me.

And thanks for the socks suggestion, as we have dusty weather mostly.

Lol looks like we may end up with a similar setup. I currently run that same sizes in RE71R.

Beware of wear rate on Cup tires...a GT3 owner reportedly (tire rack review) burned through a set within a few thousand miles of street driving (fast highway driving on coarse pattern concrete).

Best of luck
