New track setup for my Z4M

dorifto88 · 09-18-2011, 03:41 PM

Just picked up a set of DPT's for my track setup, they are 18x10 +25 DPT's (http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/pro...oducts_id=6630)

with Hankook RS3's in a 265/35/18 Square setup.

Perfect size for the car, fits great in the front and the rear, can't wait to hit the track and give them a shot.

Big thanks to wheeldude.com for the great service and products.

How did you fit 265 in the front? :O

im guessing with them rubbing like fuck!!!

esqu1re · 09-19-2011, 08:39 AM

Like others are saying...I can't believe you got the 265 to fit in the front! Stance looks great.

dorifto88 · 09-19-2011, 08:46 AM

thanks all. running -3.5 degrees in the front, no rubbing whatsoever. rear fenders need to be rolled though due to my 15mm spacer.

mfanatic325 · 09-19-2011, 02:28 PM

lol no effing clue how that was possible Mike

ZStig · 09-19-2011, 02:50 PM

wow, way to push the envelope! I wonder if the same would work with only -2.5* camber up front

dorifto88 · 09-19-2011, 02:52 PM

bet i can run my 275's in front lol

ZStig · 09-19-2011, 02:54 PM

whats the weight on those?

Shereef_Osman · 09-19-2011, 02:56 PM

This will ONLY work with that much camber, lol, otherwise it will definitely rub. Looks great though and it's awesome for the track!

onelove · 09-19-2011, 03:13 PM

Nice Work.

Lots of camber, a reasonably high ride height. slightly stretched tire, make the 265 possible. Also have to keep in mind sectional and total tire width differences from tire to tire, while the RS3 may work, the same sized Hoosier or NT01 may not.

Yes, the wheels hold up great, been having nothing but great response on them for the past few years.

Sponsored many vehicles with Rota wheels and not 1 reported issue, even with some teams that have gone off track

These teams include GST Motorsports, LIC Motorsports, Snail Performance, Turn in Concepts and a few more...All these companies put the wheels through much more than the average street car gets put through

We've also sponsored Vishnu Tuning with a set of Rota wheels for his 335i that he's used for a ton of R&D and those have been put through a lot and have held up great as well

If you guys are interested in pictures or contact information for any of these people, I'd be more than happy to provide it and they'd be more than happy to answer questions for you guys on the product as well so you can hear it from people other than ourselves

I believe you can get a 255 with -2.5 camber.

ZStig · 09-19-2011, 04:30 PM

THANKS

l4zy · 09-22-2011, 01:27 PM

No shit - I had to go down to 5mm - 12.5mm spacers were touching with the 265's...
