The Tarmac 0's are only height adjustable and I only plan on going down about 25mm (20 initially while it settles). Should cover most of the wheel gap on 18's. 280/280 spring rates. Feels like a very nice balance all around. Last thing I want to do is slam the car and kill the performance.

Interested to see how 18X9.5's actually handle after this upgrade. The 245/35's up front are extremely close to the stock spring because its so wide. People will probably argue 18X9.5 up front is too wide. I've been having a blast so far, but I'm also not pushing it extremely hard because I don't want it to rub on a very hard corner without coilovers.

Ultimately, my car is a DD, cars and coffee, and spirited driver car. I aim for a little bit of everything in each upgrade. If I was purely track, I'd be doing 17X8 or 17X9, no doubt. That is something I may consider in the future.

Thanks for this helpful post. I wish I would have read this earlier. Lots of important information.
