With as cheap as these wheels can be found for on here, this ended up being the most "cost effective" way to get a square setup for the track. Granted these are pretty heavy wheels but until I can get something else these work fine.

Have you had it on the track yet? If so, how did it feel? Any rubbing?

Going out on Sunday so I'll let you know what I run into. Hoping for a big improvement over the tiny original front tire size.

Looking forward to your impressions as this is exactly the question i asked a while ago and got no firm reply.

Impressions from the weekend were very positive.
No rubbing that I could notice. (stock suspension, only using the camber bolts as mentioned above.) Threshold breaking felt much more solid/confident with the additional rubber on the front. Entry felt much improved. Perhaps a little more need to use power to finish rotating but only felt this on a couple of slower corners. I've read that some feel going with the wider wheels/tires in the front reduced road/steering feel but this wasn't the case from what I could tell. A quality alignment definitely helps here. Of course, these are just my impressions and I'm no pro driver so YMMV. Having said that, I personally won't be going back to the smaller fronts any time soon.

Sounds like a result then! Do the NT05's run wider than "normal" tires of the same width?

That I couldn't answer, you'd have to do some digging that I didn't bother with. I sort of just ordered them and hoped they would fit.
