Pressures were probably a little high for that run but I can agree that I have much to learn. I did very well in my class last year but I'm in trouble this season because some seriously fast guys with more modded cars plus r-comps are moving into my class.
I'm at -1.4 neg camber in the front. Right now I've got 12mm gap between the inside of the tire and the strut tube with the 255's. In theory the 275's should only use up 10mm of that and will likely use less since I'm stuffing them onto the 8" rims, but all things considered 2mm isn't much clearance to plan on. Having to stay with the 8" rims is the main reason I haven't done it yet. I don't think I'll get the full benefit of the tire width change and may not get much at all, just some diameter growth.
