rce tarmac 0 or 2 ?

Debating to pick tarmac 0 or the tarmac clubsport 2. After seeing some reviews some people are saying that the tarmac 2 are definitely streetable. I am interested in the 350/350 or 400/400 spring option.

My car will be used as a DD. With ALOT of spirited driving. Almost daily.


I would really like the adjustability and learn my way into suspension tuning hands on. But is it worth the extra dollars. Any users with these springs and with the tarmac 0 and tarmac 2 please chime in.

I would recommend the KW V3's for a daily. I use them and love them. The Tarmac 2's are a little more track focused. Myles has a post on the forums here that even has recommended rebound and compression settings for them on the street. I haven't deviated from those settings as they are spot on.


I came from the Tarmac 0's and the difference is massive. I can actually lower my car about 1.4 inches and have a nice comfortable sporty ride for the daily drive.

I know I'm probably a little biased......

But when we were developing these I did many trip from DC to Yonkers and did it both with the 350's and the 400's on the T2 and on the T zero's. The Zero's felt like the T2's in the middle softer settings, yet with the T2's we were able to add some compression damping we tracked the car. I think in the long run the T2's will be the way to go. Our initial out of the box settings we have work well to get you up to speed right away.

Many days tuning on the cross bronx pkwy,Saw Mill River pkwy, Major Deagan...etc.
