feck me they are 19's ! car looks stunning ,  love the bonnet back to white , very stealth OEM+  :evilgrin:
i take it grip issues are going from 18in semi slicks to 19in road tyres ?
any plans to weigh it again / corner weight setup with these recent changes, or have you done that ?

That is basically the issue yeah, 235 R888's to 215 Proxes.. Makes a pretty HUGE difference to the grip levels.. (put it this way, im not thinking about big turbo at the minute) lol..

The car needs a full set up, there is a load more work to get the wheels / tyres to fit perfectly as I want them to, with the larger tyre and less camber etc etc.. It wont look any different really but will drive lots better

Cheers for the comments

The Wheels look proper on the car :wink:r

Are you keeping the centres of the wheels white or going to change them?

how has the TT lower control arms and walk transformed the car.

i have toyo proxes T1Rs on mine at the moment and they they took nearly 600 miles before i got any were near normal grip that i was expecting, it power understeered on a severe level up until that point, however 2000 miles on they are still no where near as grippy, wet or dry as what my vredestein ultrac sessantas were.

How heavy are these wheels compared to the TD's mate? Or are these just for show and other rims for track/strip action?
Looks ok too I suppose..  :wink: :signLOL:


P.s. Did you get my text last weekend mate?
