Currently Eibach multipro r2 coilovers. Likely switching to SRCs, MCS, JRZ or try the RCE clubsport 3ways soon. Front is maxed on the plates at 2 degrees currently ;(

Fantastic response Ryan, based on your post and the link you sent 17x9+42 would be perfect with 245/40/17 and basically no suspension modification. Do you know if the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires fit the PP struts?
Congrats on filling the preorders btw Sorry I also wanted to ask, when do these ship after preorders close? |

The Group Buy ends tonight at midnight folks (PST). With the top discount tier unlocked and guaranteed to all participants, this should be a no-brainer for anyone in the market for forged wheels that check all of the boxes.
Quote:
ET35 will obviously require a more negative camber to clear the fenders under suspension compression with the compounds you mentioned, but you should be running aggressive camber specs anyways so I don't see that as a barrier. ET42 will give you more breathing room on the fender side, and will use up more of the available real estate on the inside. Even if you pivot to JRZ/MCS dampers, you can still play with spring stack height to ensure you have favorable wheel/tire clearance. For example, all of our JRZ suspension packages for BMW's are customizable with Hyperco main springs (in the customer choice of length and rate), and we only use Hyperco helper springs that collapse to add only 1/2" of height (with no effective spring rate). A shorter main spring paired with helpers is going to keep the lower spring perch in a favorable location in comparison to kits that run tender springs, etc. - Ryan

Yeah I completely revised my order a few days ago to +35 and switched colors/etc for no real reason.

Nothing planned yet for the forged EC-7Rs. We just finished our ARC-8 group buy recently and need to take stock on the forged side before committing to anything. Keep an eye on our social media and the forums though!
