Awesome ,that's going to be a pretty cosy fit on the rear!

I settled with a 205 soft compound on the rear of my ek, then either a 205 soft on the front for wet or short runs, and a 225 AR1 for longer events. Works alright.

They should fit ok with a bit of guard lipping pretty sure I'll be ordering AD09s

3mm Spacer Required and we are good, much better than the current 20mm spacer

Advan AD09 225/45/16 should be good

I'm frothing, after owning the car for 13+ years it finally got new rims

Been getting out and about, new wheels and tires are simply amazing

New exhaust on the way removing the cat back buddy club system and going 3 inch all the way - ironically it will likely be quite even though its bigger due to better mufflers

Just like that we have full 3inch exhaust:

Car is now silent yet goes better than previously...very happy

 

Now to fit some Kelford 176-TS cams n springs I purchased then a tickle on the dyno and will see if we can get to 200kw on less than 10psi

Got a nice strings and lazers alignment, added front and rear camber arms, plus rear toe arms. Car now drives amazing next up some 90tys graphics. Stock guards 225/45/16 ad09s +35 off set wheels n it's sitting nicely under all the stock guards 😃

I found the rear toe adjustment to be critical on my ek. From 2-3 mm to zero was the difference from something that had way too much lift off oversteer to being able to bomb into corners with way more commitment. Everyone says you need the toe to prevent understeer,  but with the right diff and tyre combo I'm not so sure.

From my quick drive through the local touge on the way home it's amazing.

V2 is completed

Nice clean look, it's much more stealth than my ek!

Now to rebuild a driveway and retaining wall, sell the house and then move back to NZ - this thing is going to be fun on Taranaki roads

Looking sicko, very tempted to sell up my stash and buy some 16x8.... 7.5's are the widest I currently have and I'm not sure what a 225 would go like on them.
