Whats the minimum UTCQ for Club Sprint in 2011 ? cant see the new rules. Once known, I'd be looking on tirerack.com and having them ship tyres to you.

9.5 wide in the fronts would be around +20 I think to work.

See post #16.

Tread wear rating must be over 120.

Yeah thought it would be around the 20 to 25 offset. I tried my 35 offset on the front and it just touches the upper arm. Be good to have the extra clearance so might try a 20 if I can find one and go from there

So nothing new to report really, been workin a heap and really only playing with the wheel alignment and dampening on the suspension. It's amazing how with the finest tweak can make such an extreme difference. Also threw some 275/18 kumho ku36s on and was impressed at how well they work. In the planning / design process of making the new undertray and also recieved my thermostatic oil cooler relocation sandwich plate so will be making some progress in the cooling department too when the cooler arrives.

Will post up some progress pics when I start making the undertray and yeah see how it all comes together

Another option for tyres is the new Hankook RS-3s, 140 treadwear and they are getting good reviews O/Seas. From what I can see superior to KU36 (and I've used those on the track). Im trying to get a set from Tirerack.com for my turbo mx5.

I agree the RS3's are a great option. Huge tread blocks and great reviews!!

I was considering some of these for my street rears but ended up going with ad08s.

Unfortunately the RS3s don't come in 19's but you could run 245 fronts (8-8.5") and 265 rears (with 9.5" rims) on 18" wheels.

Another idea to save weight would be to go with this light weight battery discussed here.

An easy way to save 15kg of weight!!!!!!

Have you considered one of those vented fibreglass bonnets too?

Yeah I'm dead keen for one of those batterys and was thinkin carbon bonnet. As for tyres do they come In a 295 or any bigger than a 265?

Hankook Ventus R-S3

They do come in 285/35/18 too and according to the website would fit on a 9.5" rim as a bare minimum, but I'd recommend a wider rim if it fits.

265-275s on the front would be good. Need to pull the guards though.

the light battery and cf bonnet are great ideas.
