New track setup. CCW's

17x10 front 17x11 rear CCW classics T1 spec.
295/35/17 front 315/35/17 rear Hoosier A6's

Got the hoosiers mounted up and decided to take a couple pics. This will be my autox/HPDE setup. I can't wait to get it back on track

They look awesome.... I've had classics since '03. You'll fine A6s run out quickly with HDPE use, you want R6s for track events.

Thanks guys. I have wanted a set of CCW's for almost 5 years now. I'm finally able to get a set of my own. Feels pretty good.

How is the fitment of the 295s in the front. I have been toying with the idea of running 295s all the way around.

Of course I have to put my car back together before I can do that.

295's fit perfect. No rubbing even at full lock. Of course my car isn't slammed either. One thats dropped all the way on the stock botls might have an issue.

For best handling in auto-x and on the road course, you dont want to lower any more then 1./2" from stock right heights. The is a lot of spring shock compliance on tight corners even with stiff suspension

Yes, I was in it while it was on the scales. It's pretty close on the cross balance. I may get it up to Phoenix Performance next year and have them make it perfect. I just didn't see the need till I had some seat time in the car.
