I disagree but then again i hate running a staggered set up. A square setup works best for me especially at the track, the ability to rotate tires alone makes it worth it.

My track wheels. 17x9 +45 all around.

 

Look at any RWD sports car, Super cars in particular, the rear is always more concave then front, front is always a narrower wheel/tire then rear and also needs more room for a larger caliper, so the concave/convex staggered fitment is very much inline with that look and practicality, and it does just accentuate the rear that much more which is the more desired look on a RWD car. Running concave all the way around looks like an AWD/Subaru set up. Doesn’t really fit the character of the S2k INMO.

I would totally agree with you if the convex/poke of this wheel was on the rear. Ive seen that before and it doesnt look good at all.

Then again running a square fitment has to break this mold, but I don’t run a square fitment on a RWD car that on a stock body can accommodate 40mm more rubber in the rear then front, that’s why I run the better option of 255/295

 

Yes i do agree with you but in my experience i like the way the car handles more with a square setup. Yes, it does tend to understeer a bit under certain conditions but thats minor. The front tires do NOT lose grip after just a few sessions and i can rotate my tires which saves me a ton on tires since i do track often. Yes, the handling and steering feedback on a staggered setup is slightly "better" as well as turn in characteristics but i'll take tire life/grip and the ability to rotate over that.

I also think it looks better but thats my opinion as well and im sure most will agree with me in terms of the RPF1.

There is plenty more. Search some more and don't be so impatient. There are options out there but it takes time to research them and track down the set you want.

You meant "over steer" for your square set up, i think? But depends on how you have your suspension tuned also. Typically a square set up on this car lends itself to easy over steer situations, not the other way around. But anyway, don’t mean to derail this thread here.

 

That would be a better argument if there was more than one maker of your preferred tire size. One reason I wound up at 245/255 is because both of those sizes are available from a wide variety of makers in very sticky compounds.

 

Its still a valid argument. Switch to 18's if you don't like Kuhmos extreme summers. New Kuhmo v720 in 295/35/17 available spring 2016. Ive enjoyed the grip of running a 17" 295 extreme summer for the last 5-6 years now, wile having the total package weigh as much a the stock ap2 v1 rear wheels and tires. Cant beat the cost either. If the ultimate max track grip is wanted, Hoosier makes a 295/35/17 DOT slick. if you dont mind running a over fender in the rear, there are half a dozen 315/35/17 options, including the R888.

 

18 is the way to go if you are going wider than 255. Lots more options thanks to porsche using those sizes on quite a few cars. Tires cost more but hey if this was cheap or easy then everyone would do it.

 

I have noticed the guy with my old car would rather stance it on XXR's, so I'm going to see about getting those CE28's back.

17x8 +38 with 235/40 Federal 595 RSR. Not ideal, but better than what I have now?

 

I love the RG-Ds. Too bad like, all of those SoS sets were staggered when really 17x9" squared would be the way to go.
