I found the stock setup to be understeer biased. Went to 19x10 with 275s square and found the car to be neutral. Went through a set of rs3s, Star specs, and 595rsrr (terrible tire). Will continue...

Do a bunch hard stops and get them real hot, then drive around for a bit and let them cool. This helps sometimes. Dont hold the car still using the brakes while they are hot or you will get a...

This is what I did. Did not use spacers though, I just ground away a little of the flange on the strut (to look like the strut on the 1LE). I had 3mm spacers custom made but have not needed them. ...

beat the snot out of my 16 for 32k (roughly 10k actual track miles). Only issue was a differential fluid hose leaking in the first week or two, nothing other than that.

It went completely over my head that the 1LE comes with a much more desirable width to begin with, which is the car we were originally talking about anyway.

I’ve never driven a car this heavy on slicks, just miatas, s2ks, BRZs, a prepped and gutted vette, and a couple gnarly 818Rs (4-500 whp, 1800lbs). But my opinion is that this car’s suspension is way...
