Another wheel advice E85 roadster
- Thread starter coenZ4
- Start date
I know that depending on the tire company 225 is slimmer than others so my 225 /35/18 nittos are a little stretched on a 8.5 in vmr vb3 wheel. Good luck on stretching that on a 10 inch. I have 9.5 in the standard offset rear and there is still room to get 10 inch on the rear in there but no more.
Not sure going +3 on the camber is going to get you anywhere other than ordering rears every 5k. There isn't a lot of extreme tire talk on here because no one here is into extreme looking z4's and they have all offsets and tire sizes (what works what doesn't) figured out. This is more the purist forum
You can go to zpost which is a u.s. z4 site and take a chance on getting destroyed. But since you track you should already know that extreme amount of camber and drop is useless.

not gonna stretch a 225 on a 10.5 wheel.. would be a 245 or even a 255 depending on space.
but what about the " destroying" talk.. just a matter of respect to one eachother..?
I track on a complete different setup and this would be a show/stance setup.
as you might know, you cannot do over 2 degrees camber on the back on stock and I hope I can keep within the 2 degrees.
So you guys don't like this?

this is pretty extreme. I am just going a bit extremer.. she's still tucking tire and I'll be poking a bit.

its not as tucked as ive seen, but not something ive seen on here. some of the guys on zpost can be dicks for no reason, I dont even post there.
I was assuming you may be going with a high off set or spacers in the rear and tucking hard.
but what your planning on doing should be sweet. are you going to be changing camber/ realigning for the track or just doing something usable for both applications?

I'll have it alligned everytime before tracking. I work at a suspension manufactorer so we have all the right tools to do the allignment.
but thanks for the compliment! I must say that I can respect a complete standard Z4 as long as the owner is happy and I can respect a complete "tupperware" z4 simply because of the fact that the owner had probably put in a lot of wrenchtime and (S)HE loves the car!!
each to there ownes.. right? but we all like cars, we like talking about it.. respect eachoter!
