I'd really like to keep my 235/40 fronts, but they rub on the lower lip of the duct where it meets the wheel arch. It's been difficult to blow/roll the arch liner and the duct together, so I'm going to 3d print an insert for the duct that replaces the lower edge of it and allows more clearance. In the future I might close off the arch aperture altogether and print a part that feeds some flexible hose that cools the inside of the brakes directly (exdos-stylee).

That plus it's a chance to learn a few new skills during the cold winter months and I'm a sucker for a stupid project.

No rubbing on front?
Im running 225 35 19 and rubbing slightly?

absolutely no rubbing at all. Removed the camber pins and moved the shocks across giving me a bit more negative camber and it cured the rubbing instantly!

Unfortunately not mine. Just rent the space for my car during the winter. It's an old barn converted to storage facilities for cars and boats.
The owner of the Porsche is just another customer like me. Its a 996 GT2. He also have a second GT2...

Haven't seen that one though.

120 mike jaunt around Somerset for no other reason than the sun was shining and I felt the need to drive!

Went up and down Cheddar gorge, twice. Love the sound of the straight six and DLV backbox reverberating off the rocks.

The sun was low and this was about the only spot that wasn’t in deep shade.
