One of the wheels I am looking at comes in a 10.5 +22. I happened to have a set of 25mm spacers which would put my stock wheels right where the perspective wheels would be. I took a few photos of how it went. This is on my cars "bad side" it has about -.7 to -.9 degrees of camber depending on the shops rack, but none the less it sucks. From what I saw, I think the the 10.5 +22 will be able to fit no problem once camber is in the -2.5 to -3 range. Other members in this section are running wider with r compounds so I don't think hitting the max wheel and tire allowance will be an issue.







None the less, my plan is to get the suspension sorted and wait until the following season or mid season to replace the wheels. There is always the chance that more options will become available the longer I wait.

My STU Build List if I keep my car:

18x10 (Volks of some sort) w/285 RE71R
z1 FUCA
Front bar
Berk HFC
Exhaust something to stay below 100db lol
z1 2 Piece Rotors
Penske 7500DA
1000lbs front/896lbs rear springs. Change as necessary
OS Giken
Race seat of some sort. New SCCA rule Race Seat + mounting equipment must weigh 35lbs.

Spoke with a couple of veteran and they recommend tires, suspension and differential as the 3 must haves.

Dumb question, but where would you get your 1000lb/896lb springs from? I don't think there is such an off-the-shelf offering.
