Hi Everyone,

Thanks for chiming in.

165k on the ODO. I'm running Carerra iii OEM staggered wheels. The rear is 18x10 +65, the fronts are 18x8, unsure of the offset. Front tires are RE71Rs, rears are some Continental Sports (all I could find in 275 when I took two flats on a roadtrip).

I have a little over a decade of time attack/hpde/instructing, but admittedly that was mostly fwd cars.

Definitely need to swap back to 71rs on the rear, but the deflection should be independent of the **************** tire. The offset and spacer alone puts the wheels damn close to the strut to begin with, so it's not deflecting much (maybe a few mm?), but it is happening.

This may or may not be correlated to twitchy feeling.

Unknown on tire pressures. I generally don't dial them in when playing on the street, and the temperature of the road changes by +20F from top to bottom, but I'll try to dial it in when warmed up and see where we're at.

piper, that's a pretty great breakout
