Tire question for track (HPDE)

[el bimmer]

I would not run 15s up front with 16 in the rear. Just spend the 50 bucks for a set of spacers to clear the strut or borrow a spacer from somebody untill you kill the tires then order a 45 series sidewall

Cool thanks for the information.

TRM C1s come in 15x8 +~20 5x120. They clear E30M brakes.

I wasn't sure if he was 5 lug I figure I'm local if he wanted to see if they would clear, I assume he was running a uuc bbk and wanted the tr c1's

I'm running the Toyo Proxes R888's 225/45 on 16's with a 10mm spacer. The wheels are BBS RX's and I have the offset M3 solid bushings from Condor. No rubbing up front or rear.

Lots of back and forth on this tire on the Spec forums, but I just had my first HPDE on them and thought they were fantastic.

Do you have spacers in the rear as well? I really do not want to use spacers for track. It's just my personal preference, but very thankful for the information. This information really made me understand what I will really need in the front. Thanks again.

buy quality spacers and you won't have a problem. if you look at most club/nasa race cars, spaces are often used.

of the 7 sets I've owned, i liked VAC spaces the best.

I'm also running spacers, 20mm motorpsort hardware spacers and extended studs. Both quality products, no vibration or issues.

Cool great to know!!! So with styles 5 from an e38 with 225 45 16, 10 mm should do it?

Great info!

I'm tracking on 10mm spacers with hub extenders from Turner, with vorshlag studs.

No problems.

Are you planning on doing lots of track time, or just a few times a year?

If you are going to do it more than occasionally, I'd consider getting something less aggressive for the street, and having a dedicated set of track wheels/tires.

15x8s that Wh33lhop mentioned +225/45 NT-01/R888/Rivals would make a killer HPDE setup for an E30.
