Would you seriously have run the Monaro? What's changed since last year? Kinda moot as you're on holiday but just intrigued to know if you've changed something?

Could not run last year because rear left tyre could touch the under floor,(not a goo idea at 180mph) yikes
but Roger will sort this now arches are cut, was booked in for this week, but now will be going in to the Fish in 2/3 weeks for this and other bits.

iurc last year could not run hard in scotland because of the tyre touching under floor when pushing on hard frown

Yeah I remember. Unless I can sort the rubbing issue on mine I'll be going back to stock rears for event. Hoping going to a 265/30/19 will solve it, but I'm not overly hopeful... frown

30 profile should be ok ?

My issue was going to 35(285) on MPSS, But fk its worth it for the extra grip, got my rears up to 41C today
and it was like driving with super glue tyres biggrin

The offset isn't ideal so ultimately it'll come down to staying on stock suspension or swapping the wheels and then putting on some coilovers.

I'm choosing to take this as an opportunity to spec out some Wortec wheels and carbon ceramic brakes hehe

Are you not coming to Monkfish in May? We'll probably have a convoy there.
