I told you I've been running the exact same setup in my first post

Yoko Advan A052 295/35/18 on a 18x10+33 TA5R. I tried it up front with a 10mm spacer (biggest I had) and the inboard (strut) clearance was insufficient. Ty was running an effective +15 offset |

I took a video of the strut clearance...the short answer is, it's not enough. Ty has an 18x10+40 wheel with a 25mm front spacer, giving him an effective offset of +15. That would be compared to my effective offset of +23. An additional 8mm inboard clearance would definitely be sufficient but I don't know what that would look like on the outside. I'm currently at about -2.4* of camber according to the guy who did my last alignment (it wasn't on a machine so I didn't get a printout) . I also don't know if he rolled his fenders, or what. The next set of tires I'm running will be hoosiers, 275/35 in the back. I eventually want to go to 275 square so I'm going to get that to fit up front one way or another, and I'll report back |

295 you are looking at fender work. 275 square will be a sublime handling car. I personally am a bit faster with the 275/295 hoosier stagger but you are introducing a minor bit of understeer. Can certainly be worked around through setup and technique but you might not have that same go kart feeling a square M2 can give you - but still an exceptional handling car. 295 square will be phenomenal

Going to be a nice setup! Going to go with the same offsets front & rear and use spacers to make them work?

I'm still waiting on a ruling from the national office. If they rule in my favor, I'm going to switch to Pirelli DH slicks. If not, it's Hoohoo's. The question is whether the OEM lower valance on the OG M2 should be classified as a "Diffuser"... (I say no) Last edited by 243Racing; 04-09-2021 at 11:08 AM.. |

Is this a matter of having room to take the penalty for non DOT - or something else???

That's exactly what it is. We have something called "BTM Aero" which gives you back 0.4 weight to power - which equals about 140 lbs. If I can use this, I can run slicks; if not, I'm limited to DOT tires. The rule basically states you have to use the same "Aero" as the base trim model, and additionally the car can't have a splitter, spoiler, or diffuser. I'd have to remove the OEM rear "lip" (stupid, imo)

I had emailed APEX and they were useless for help. The one person did say "18x10et33 won't fit the front of your car with KWs."
They suggested some 9.5 in the et2x range. I really don't want that. Cause a wide running 275 would be really wide on 9.5. Can BeastieBombRacing or OG Shark give me some more confirmation that a 18x10et33 will fit. |
