CSL track rim options

[O'Neill]

I have been comparing these tyres with 265/30/19 fronts which rubbed at et27 however the 265/35/18 are 1.1 inches less diameter so about 13mm less radius and less poking into the wheel arch. So might be easier to work, just keep an eye on the arch rather than arch liner maybe

Still try it on full lock and soft suspension but where it will matter at Donny is compression at Craners or under braking at Redgate.

Are you sure?

rims arrived as did 8x R888:thumbs:



Now when I bought these i was under the impression they'd fit no problem but as I understand it I need to muck about with spacers etc. i got 10mm for the rear but I've a feeling I'll need a 5mm for the front?

did any of you (conleth or Evlxge?) have rubbing issues with the 18x9 on the front? running 265/45?

i haven't got the tyres fitted yet. #needtogetthefingerout:wink:

[EVLXGE]

OZ Ultraleggeras (not sure of the offset). No issues with rubbing. Had 10mm spacers on the front first but ended up running without as they looked a little too close for comfort. Would of been fine on KW etc but to much roll on standard suspension.

hmm I have a feeling I'm going to end up needing coilovers. If thats the case I'll probably just sell the team dynamics and but another set of CSL's and cups:banghead:

Yep 18x9 ET 30. 265/45/18 with a 10mm spacer at the rear on stock suspension.

Fingers crossed!

nice one, I hope you are right. rims and tyres are on the west coast in my parents house, CSL is on the East coast:banghead: might sort it out the weekend of the 17th although I doubt too many mechanics will be working that day in Ireland:beer:

[conleth m3]

you're right barry, not much usually happens then, apart from :beer::beer:artyman:

hopefully getting my coilovers looked at this weekend then TDs should go on with no spacers on the front. will see how close it is and put some pics up.
