Ok, I got my sh*t figured out. I was trying to put 9" (45mm offset )wheels with 245/40/17 bridgestone RE71 's on the front. I got bad tire clearance( - 1/2") against the front lower spring and perch. I thought I was screwed. I ordered some 25mm spacers. After studying my set up, I realized my whiteline cam bolts were set to full negative camber. I set them for full positive camber and ended up with about 1/4 " clearance, no spacer. Whew! I ordered some adjustable top plates to fix my camber problem. The back wheels and tires fit good. This size is probably the widest practical for a DD. I searched the SCCA solo rules hard. It looks like spacers will bump you from STX to SP. Thanks for all your help. This forum is GREAT!!

Spacers don't bump you to SP. And, you probably only needed 5-8mm for clearance on 9" +45.

What front sway bar is everyone running?
Yesterday I did my first autocrossers I installed RCE T2 coilovers and a WRX rear sway bar. I also have a Perrin 19mm front sway bar set on stiff. I was using this bar the last 2 years in CS. I had oversteer everywhere. I disconnected the rear sway bar and it drove so much better but had mid corner push. How big is too big for the front sway bar?

The fast setups seem to be the front bar you already have or the Whiteline 20mm (Strano is similar to the stiffer setting) I'd try stock rear bar before going any bigger in the front. |

I'm on 400/400, strano bar in front and whiteline 16mm rear bar in back. I added the rear bar right before nationals so it will take some tweaking as the season starts this year. Swapping to racer-x endlinks first things first.
