The rims just have that much offset. They have the same standard backspacing as my other wheels (empi 8's). So all the increased width goes out the fender
It sucks, kinda, and had i known when I ordered the wheel, i would've ordered them with slightly more backspacing. The front wheels are so wide that if i lower the front too much they hit the fender during turns. I'm gonna clearance the fenders a little over winter and hopefully get some stiffer torsion bars so I can lower the back end some more without bottoming out the fenders on the tires.
No video this month...but there will be, hopefully, next month.
The course was very wide open...which was my disadvantage with such a low RPM limit and small tires. The course started out in a straight away and i was pegged out in second gear 2/3 of the way down the straight and held it pegged through the first half of the course (a few jogs and sweepers). I eventually tried shifting to third, which helped some, but I screwed up while downshifting and hit a cone twice. The course was the longest distance-wise course I had ever run, but also the shortest time-wise at about 40 seconds.
It would've been good to have had taller tires and a little higher of an RPM limit so that I wouldn't have had to upshift to 3rd.
