2018 new autocross wheel setup

Just mounted my new wheels and tires for the upcoming autocross season. 17x9 +35 rpf1 that were orginally 5x112. Filled and redrilled by a machine shop so they are now 5x110. Tires are 255 40 17. I use the car for STX, thought some people might be interested in seeing this.

Awesome man. What camber are you running up front? If -2 degrees or more what did you use to get there?

Think those are any different from the Ingells camber bolts on turbotechracing.com?

I'm sure it's the same kinda design but I don't know if you'd be able to get the same amount of camber out of those. I think the eibach ones say you can only get -2 but I have over 3 and I'm not even maxed out. I bet I could get -7 if I had coilovers lol.

Unfortunately not but a good friend of mine just bought a go pro to record autocross on his c63 so I'll probably borrow that to take some videos this upcoming season.

Nice, share them on here if you do. There is an autocross and road racing picture and video thread in the autocross and road racing section.
