Anyone running this square setup with different offsets?

Originally posted by Slideways View PostThat kinda defeats one of the main purposes of a square setup which is the ability to rotate wheels/tires. The common setup is a 18x9.5 ET35 square with a 12mm spacer in the rear. The spacer in the rear effectively makes the offset ET23 for the rear pair.
FULL caster in front, BTW.
Rear: I found the suggested 12mm spacer in the rear to be not near enough. I tried a 15mm spacer. Nope.
I ended up with a 20mm. Perfect. Perhaps my car differs because of my heavily cut and rolled rear fenders. But 20mm looks and handles perfect for me. Rear camber via Turner Camber Arms is -2.0
TCK single adjustable 650lb rear. TCK single adjustable 450lb Swift spring in front with TCK caster/camber plates and Swift teflon/steel thrust washers. My car is a heavy cabrio with giant 30mm anti sway bar in front. The Swift 450lb spring are exceedingly compliant for my car. Not over springed at all. In fact I need more spring. It bottoms out too easily. I have some TCK 550's that I will try in the front. I have the rebound cranked to near max. I bet I will be able to back that off with the 550's up front.
The 650lb TCK rears are a great match for my fronts. Perfect.
The left rear shock is squeaking after two years. Going to have a look at it.
I run stock toe -in, front and rear.
I want to upgrade to Öhlins and Turner Hybrid hats. The same set up that Obioban used to run.Last edited by BigDave; 05-17-2022, 11:48 AM.
