I suppose I could email Lee directly but I put this out here to ask about the appropriateness (if that's a word) of a BBK on a street car. Car is 97.5% street only use. I go for long spirited drives, will attend some driving schools & really push the car but this will not (in current form) be an autox car or track car. With that said I have stumbled on a set of 5 very nice, recently refurbished, 15" basket weave rims.
What is the next step up from stock that many of you guys run? (Lee or others - Similar to the Volvo/Girling upgrade or vented front / 250mm rear upgrade on a 2002) I would like a little better heat disbursement for spirited driving and a little firmer pedal feel. The car already has SS brake lines. Perhaps could I just upgrade the brake ducts?
Finally - will a "one up from stock" BBK fit under either 14" or 15" basket weaves? I'd like to use the 14"ers for winter studded snows and the 15"ers for summer driving. I would be open to purchasing a second set of 15" wheels for winter driving as well but would like to know about fitment ASAP because I need tires and am about to decide on the purchase of new tires for the 14" or 15" wheels and tires.....
Thanks for any advice or suggestions!
