G'day all!
I'm about to be a proud owner of an M140i and coming out of 2 previous Golf R's which I would track about 3-4 times year and use the car as a daily drive for work.
Mods will be kept basic for a while but first up im thinking;
- dedicated track wheesl in 18in, maily due to available tyre options, thinking R888, AD08, RS3/4 etc depending on availability and price.
- dedicated set of brake rotors and pads which i will change out when fitting wheels. High temp fluid as well of course.
I've been reading this and other threads trying to get my head around the best set wheel size combo for the second set of dedicated track wheels with the aim of fitting wider tyres all round.
There seems to be front tyre width limitations and talk of using spacers which i dont want to use. The wheels im getting come in 18x8.5 & 18x9.5, front and rear respectively. I can get the offset to my liking which is ideal so that i dont have to use spacers.
I would like 235/40/18 up front & options of 255/265/275/35/18 on the rear.
Question is, what offsets should i be aiming for to clear the struts and guards and not rub without the use of spacers?
