You can also run pads that inherently run cooler. Avoid ABS use if possible. |

My video is a 100% stock engine with 18x9.5 TE37Saga with 255/35/18. Sonny's video is on Ace/E85, with 255/40/17 on 17x9. For example Phil Hill apex speed Me: 78 Sonny: 74 Vmax before Sweeper (corner after straight post phil hill) Me: 101 Sonny: 106 Sweeper exit apex speed: Me: 70 Sonny: 66 Vmax before Sunset (esses after sweeper are WOT, then straight to Sunset) Me: 106 Sonny: 113 Sunset apex speed: Me: 67 Sonny: 62 Vmax before Sunrise (sunset -> front straight -> Sunrise) Me: 102 Sonny: 109 Obviously part of this vmax difference is the power and weight difference of the cars, but it does partially illustrate cornering speed gains vs straightline speed gains. Sonny's overall lap is 1.2 seconds faster. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax09vTphw3c[/ame] [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zgIvxVT4ok[/ame] |

I'd also like to add that Apex has confirmed they are working on a 17x9.5 set in GT86/BRZ specific fitment to add to the confusion of wheel choices Maybe this will bridge the gap between the 17's and 18's.

@Takumi788 Speed was measured by GPS on a datalogger (cant trust speedo with different diameters). |

Had to make sure it was GPS based. Thanks! Your data gives me a good starting point.

Hmm. What size tire would you run on this wheel? I have found the widest extreme performance tire (200 tw) is usually at 255/40/17. I suppose there is always r-comps and race slicks but a slight stretch to the 255/40/17 with the extra .5" wheel comparison will be interesting.
