  1. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    I’ve never actually run Hedge Hollow before. Left the KC area right before it opened. Unfortunately probably won’t be able to make it out this year. Work schedule won’t let me off long enough to travel too far. Probably will just be doing laps at Gateway.
  2. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    Still waiting for my alignment appointment date. But after doing some basic trig, it seems like my current static camber is -2.25* front and back after lowering roughly 1 inch. The front camber plates are currently still set in their center position. Unfortunately I didn't take measurements...

    I think I was on mobile and read through too quickly, didn't catch that you were on stock arms. I wish I tested camber range and then indexed it on the adjustment plate while I had the front apart but didn't have ball-end Allen keys on hand and TBH I was pretty done with the car at that time...
  4. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    That's honestly great to hear. I'll have see how much my alignment guy can get. How much do most people aim for with camber front and rear? It's a McPherson car so I imagine on the high end for the front? I know the GR86/BRZ and CTR guys run massive numbers on the front. Might still err on the...
  5. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    Is it because the car is lowered? Most references I’ve seen for the -2.7 number is at stock height. I don’t think I saw much camber gain from free compressing the suspension with the springs off the car but I imagine there’s other variables depending on static height.
  6. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    How are you getting -3.6 front with Verus camber plates and oem shock? Most resources I've read state that past -2.7 the roller bearing top hat boot starts binding against the reinforcement ribs of the strut tower. Do you have lower control arms?
  7. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    Thanks for the tip, wish it had a hex at the nose and didn't require the jam nut method but won't argue with the price. Prob will grab a 92 mm set over winter. TBH I really like how the car feels right now. Pretty dang neutral, enough that I can "steer" with the throttle in long sweepers on...
  8. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    I am however my work schedule might screw me over. Might not get to run until June. But I suppose it's ok, still need to bleed the brakes and mull over whether or not I want a front sway bar.
  9. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    Well finally got the wheels and tires mounted. Random thoughts: Ended up getting CRS in 275/40/18 to save a bit of cash Over RE71RZ in 295/35/18. I'm still learning the car, not looking to put down PBs just yet. I knew CRS run wide but I was still surprised how wide these are. Makes MPSS look...
  10. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    Glad you had fun and made it. Which "not-straight" are you talking about lol? The front "straight" at the pits or "roller-coaster?" Turn 1 always made me pucker up in the S2000 as it dives down from the off camber apex. Still unsure if I'm making it out to Ozarks this year. Work might be tight...
  11. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    HKS HAS kit and Verus camber plates. I plan on getting coilovers in the future however didn't feel like forking over the cash just yet since I recently purchased this car. This is a stop gap measure to get the car lowered and to get more in-board clearance to run 275+ width front tires. Also I...
  12. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    Great news, got everything installed. Bad news, left one of the sensors loose when I first started the car so it threw a code and is in limp mode, lol. At least I could finally confirm fitment. Clears by a decent bit, granted MPSS run super narrow.
  13. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    I can see that. I believe OIR has a motorcycle lay out too, but it looks like they cut out a lot of the tight switch backs for that reason. Maybe was hating on the track a little too much. I think it's fun enough if you take it at a weekend pace. But it's not a track I have the balls to try to...
  14. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    Ozarks isn’t called the “Missouri-ring” for nothing. I’ve obviously never driven the Nurburgring in personbut it definitely feels like it from the simulator. You don’t really get the feeling of the elevation changes until you drive it in person as the road falls off from under you when you go...
  15. 275 tires and 18x11 vs 18x10 wheel fitment on stock shocks

    Don't blame you. Wheel fitment on the S2000 is a nightmare, especially if you're trying to fit big chungus 17x10s.
