Nothing fancy. 17 x 9" +22 and 17 x 8.5" + 30. Mainly just for track use.

BTW, the new rims look great

There isn't much purpose or reason to go that spec all round, there would just be more rolling resistance at the rear. But if the rims were my daily rims, I definitely wouldn't mind the extra concavity.

Do you think this new staggered set up you'll be running be a lot faster around the track than your CR Kai setup?

Nice wheels by the way, haha.

100% yes. No doubt about it. My car does not have enough power at this stage to utilise the amount of rubber at the front. Also, reducing rolling resistance at the rear will be a major improvement.

Finally they are here! Track time!

Where'd you get these through?

[Norm]

I sourced them through Jesse Streeter.

Nice choice in wheel spec Norm I dont mind it, I'm looking for a similar set in white though.

Very nice mods. Why did you choose the Zeal coilovers and that specific spring rate?

I was after Zeals for a very long time, 1 year to be exact! Didn't think I could go for something else ~ with such quality put into it, no other company could offer the same for the money.
Spring rates were spec'd for the valving on the super functions, they are to suit semi slick/slick tyres. I can change springs later in the future if required, but I should not need to.
