Not sure what about my posts was considered trolling, but alright.
Woah..

A bit hostile. Let's all get along. I don't want this thread to turn into a plastidip extravaganza with 50 year old dudes arguing over which LEDs, pin striping, and universal exhaust tips look the best.

Sorry, just grinds my gears to be accused of trolling for asking wheel fitment questions.

Moving on.

Yes, let's please keep this thread our little drift sanctuary.

Anyone have thoughts on drifting with spacers on the car? I put 20mm all around when I did my drop just for looks but I'm thinking it might be best to take them off at the track just for safety's sake.

EDIT: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...&postcount=126 answered my quesiton. I'm going to go through the thread and pull some noteworthy posts to keep at the top. If anyone has any suggestions LMK

All the pro guys run bolt on aluminum. Even with all of there power they don't seem to have issues. PBM definitely has a great setup with theirs where you can change the sizes. Personally, I run slip ons with extended lugs. They help out a bunch with front clearance issues.

Have made the group into a public page so a lot of the people who just want to follow others can do so.

This can be found here - https://m.facebook.com/Gt86driftclub

There is still a closed group for private chat among actual drifters. If you want to apply to join that, you'll have to PM me.

I run mine at full stiff rear, 3/4 stiff front; that's on the track. On the street, 3/4 stiff rear, halfway front.

While we're at coilover settings...
What kind of spring rates are you running?
