I went from the DSSV to the MCS for the primary purpose of fitting more wheel and tire up front. I'm 18x12 in front now, and there is plenty of room. I'm considering 18x13, once some wider (fast) tires come out. Not for the faint of heart.

The damping on the MCS, as I have them set right now, is very similar to the DSSV. The DSSV have tons of low speed compression, and with 2wnr they feel very similar with the compression turned up.

I think any difference in time is primarily attributable to gaining an extra inch of front wheel/tire.

I'll be at the Ridge again later this year, but it's been repaved so my lap times would not be comparable.
So the MSC dampers allow 1" more additional width which means you could you fit a 13" wide 19" diameter wheel up front?

Looks like the only sticky tires wide enough would be 345/30/19 A7 or R7 Hoosiers, still I'm interested... Might go to slicks next year anyways


Camaro Gen 6
1WNR $2,900
2WNR $3,700
2 Way $4,700
3 Way $6,250
4 Way $9,150

I have no idea how to judge whether or not the pricier 3 and 4 way options are worth it, as I don't know very much about dampers... thoughts and opinions?
