Hello. thought maybe others wanted to see the same as me. many of us with clubbies do look for Others with staggered setup og pretty agressive, but it can be time taking to look thru 40+ pages to see just a few.

So Show of ur agressive clubbies here

 

XXR 527 17x8.25 ET 25 With Toyo R1R 235/40/17

Before Camber Adjustment



After Camber Adjustment

 

Here's mine, nothing yet, still need to get better tires and camber adjustments but here it is

with H&R RSS Coilovers, NUE 17x8 ET30 with 205/45s



again, needa get different size tires (195/40s), and camber adjustments, and these are perfect fitment

 

Sacred Disorder how you like those Toyota R1Rs?

 

My initial impressions are good. They have great amounts of lateral grip. My first track day will be on the 30th at the Nurburgring. I will report back and let you know how they work out. Some say that they do not hold heat very well and can start to overheat on prolonged track sessions. One lap takes us 8 1/2-9 minutes so we shall see.

 

Nice. looks amazing and got amazed that it worked out with 235 tyres. made me think i mkight try that.

this bouncy road in norway would be bad for very stretch :p

 

I was really unsure about the 235/40 fitting ok. I think if your ran an et 35 rim it would be not rouble at all. You might need a 3-5mm spacer up front just to be safe. I have to say that the 235 has increased the pull of the road alot though, but the steering feedback and overall feeling is really improved as well. I would reccomend it to anyone who drives their car on the harder side of the gas pedal.

 

Have you guys noticed that with the wider stance upfront, the front wheels throw rocks at your body, especially the rear fender and just in front of it. Happened with my R50, it looks and feels so good, but then you wash the car and your heart breaks lol.

 

Hey Sacred Disorder,

My wife just bought a 2013 Spiced Orange Clubman so I thought I'd take a look at the R55 threads...

I have a few questions. I have an R59 Roadster S.

1. did you need to use spacers for the wider 8.25 wheels, or did you use a camber adjustment kit.

2. How has the ride changed with the wider tires? Those Toyo R1R's in that size are right up there on my list with the Falken RT-615k's (I had the Falken R615's on my Miata and they were incredible)

You have a wicked cool ride all de chromed......

Hey Andy,

No spacers were required. These are the 25mm Offset and are also available in a 35mm. I have BC racing Coil overs that come with camber plates for the front. They are adjusted completely negative to get that fitment. Which is a positive thing if you plan to track or autocross the roadster. The 235's make the steering feel a little heavier and transmits feedback better. However you will notice the pull of the grooves in the road more.

Thanks Brian,

Good information...

Nurburgring, only in my dreams, you lucky dog...

I'm hoping to get some time in at Lime Rock Park next year..

Here's an aggressive 'Clubbie'.
Or this one.

Alas... neither mine.


...and both Travellers.
