using oem wheels/tires

if so - actually considering the style 261m. what tire size would work? addtionally, which high perf tire (NON run flat) have you all found to be best? (i figure with no lsd, grippy tires would be helpful...)

thanks. jack

Should work with spacers. Check out the for sale section for the spacers from Velocity motors. I may order a set myself.

Yes you can do it. Our track setup is a 18x8.5 +41 all around.

Favorite grippy tires are:

Advan Neova
Toyo R1R
Federal 595-RSR
Dunlop Direzza Star Spec
