not unexpected for a +30. +38 would have been better.
it's hot and i'm sure after coilovers it will be super hot!! |

Lol, thats the plan. Apparently its illegal to fit 225 on a 9.5 inch rim. Tyre place refused to do it. I based my rim choice on this car btw.

They're an awesome looking wheel but with that negative camber I'm guessing tyre wear will be a major issue, right ?
I'm tempted into changing the whole enchilada too but I'm afraid of what it will do the cars already perfect/Porsche like setup. |

Providing the toe is set correctly it should be too much of an issue if tyres are swap every 3-6months. Or just take more corners. |

So how much toe-in for the Kiwamis + coilovers ? Factory looks like about 0. Still reckon they won't last long.

to get them to tuck you'll need a lot of camber, it chews through the inner edges quite quickly.
