Yep, +22. Sucks about the backorder, I guess I skirted that just in time.
No rubbing on the inside. Minor rubbing on the outside fender tabs under significant bumps

Technically speaking, too stiff in the front relative to the rear does induce undertsteer. My point is just that these cars rotate pretty happily, so that shouldn't be a major concern when deciding...

Figured I owe you guys some 315 / 18x11 snapshots by now.

I'm running straight second places at local events so far, 2/3 with class-winning scratch times by decent gaps but this extra tire is...

Inducing too much understeer isn't too easy to do. I run 1000lb/800lb (not exactly 18k/14k but close), and I have Hotchkis front and rear. I run my rear bar on the softest setting and the rear shocks...

I'm following for photos and measurements when uninstalled as well -- it'll be easier to withhold any judgement in case of incorrect install. I have purchased other GKtech components (shifter + knob,...

Go for it! I thought the same thing based on measurements. My calculations suggested +24 would work, but with some uncertainty on the widest part of the tire -- so I figured if I'm going to...

I didn't take the time to set up a jig or anything, but I actually created a rough mold of the negative space by making some putty in the kitchen and then jamming it between the wheel and arm. I...

I think I'll be taking a bit of a plunge on behalf of the current thread topic. Looks like I'll be picking up a set of 18x11 square Forgestar F14s (or Gramlight 57T, haven't decided yet).

Probably...

To each their own I suppose! I've always run 18x10.5 +15 square and I couldn't recommend it more for the sake of ease. The 315 rule is probably going to bring a change to 11s at some point,...

What's goofy about the offsets? I slapped on the same set of 18x10.5s from my Z33 after I switched cars. One and done! Got 4 lovely pandemic events in time to need something else 🤣

I have an OS Giken so no worries there. I suspect the bar changes will put things to bed, especially if we end up on even more tire next year.

-3.5F, -2.5R, give or take. Toe is 1/8in out at front, 1/8in in at rear. Some toe changes could benefit the rear, but perhaps at the sacrifice of camber spec given our LCA adjustment?

I think the...

4 events in (all on asphalt -- Bristol, Philly, Bristol 2.0, local BMW club), I've learned that this car is *difficult* to drive at the limit. It's really loose, and right now probably just too stiff...

Glad to see the tire changes for mid and rear-engined cars even though I hadn't written a letter yet. Also glad to see the supra out for now, but I still worry a bit about the 981caymans -- perhaps...

I saw people trying them out at the Dixie tour back in the year of their original release, but I don't think I ever heard of the compound beating an equivalent RE-71R. Regardless, the step down from...

THIS is what I like to hear. I think the 11s are going to be pretty much a requirement for fitment and competitiveness if we have end up going 315 square, nice to know they'll fit if I can manage the...

Gomer, do you think we can manage 315 square in STU trim on 11s?

I mostly agree here, it's the addition of a bunch of new cars that would shake things up moreso than the other rule changes. New participants would be nice but not at the expense of the current...

2pc Rotors installed last week, OS Giken going in tomorrow.

Did you guys see the 3/20 change proposals? Think they would spell the end end for us or am I being pessimistic? :confused:
