Hi,
I have a ser 3 16v trackday prepped.

AHM class f springs
koni shocks, front race valved, rears top adjustable sports, shortened but not enough for the class f springs.
powerflex bushes all round
superflex bushes for the front anti roll bar
adjustable panhard rod
camber adjustable sleeves.

toyo proxy t1r's all round. 195 50 15 at 35psi front and 32 psi rear.

since finally getting round to getting the springs on the front I have noticed that the sidewalls are very soft.
the car seems to float around and understeers easily. quick inputs on the steering wheel unsettle the car.

Took me a while to get used to this but hopefully some 888's will sort that???

I have been advised on a -ve camber setting of around 2 1/4 for road and 3 for track??

fitting black series powerflex bushes soon.
doing things bit by bit to get used to the difference but not been on track yet.

does anyone run class f setup on the road with 215 40 16 sidewall height of 86mm
I was thinking the difference between the sidewall height of 97.5mm for 195 50 15, 11.5mm less would be better.

I could then get 888's for the 15's and use them for track and the 16's for road?

Hey Al, I was just thinking back to Spa.



If you take that long to change your wheels over, the track day will of finished and you'll have to change em back again and go straight home Wink
