Any rubbing?

I have a SPC camber kit up front. The rest is stock. As for rubbing, I won't know till I take it to the track later this month.

I find that the harshest test of rubbing is to hit a dip in the road... likely more rubbing there than on the track. Then again, it may rub on the road and be fine on the track which is generally smoother.

Now that you bring that up, I thought I heard the rears rub on a pothole on the street but I could not find any evidence. I almost expect to roll the rear fenders at the track with my torque wrench. :banghead:

Obviously, you've never driven through turn 17 at Sebring ;).

Nope, but hope to some day :) .

When I say a dip in the road I mean a sharp dip, not a pothole, so the suspension compresses. Sometimes there are good ones by the drainage holes on the edge of a street. The best (worst) dips are on the 405 N in LA :) ...these can throw you out your seat. You can't have these on a racetrack.

Hey robinson,
Just to let you know if you're using the 245 up front, on the track I found that under the front fenders there is a small metal clip that is use to fasten the fender liner. This metal clip will cut into the sidewall of the tires with heavy load while on the track. I hand to bend the metal clips up out of the way since they where really digging into the tire. It was so bad I had to replace a tire sine the sidewall was compromised.

As far as the rear goes, no rubbing what so ever. Plenty of room back there.
