I think it's a barrel issue on the 18s. My rotors are 380mm f/r.

What times are you turning there? I ran there many years ago with the Porsche Club before and after they re-designed the track for F1 motorcyles. As a reference, I recall turning 1:43 in my street 944 Turbo. I had it set up pretty good though. I'm sure you're a hell of a lot faster! Loved the track...cork screw is a gas!

Not RPF1 but here is a setup Im thinking of running this season as a summer dd and the odd track day. Let me know your thoughts and input please

Enkei NT03+M 18.5 x 10.5 +30 ET on all 4 corners

15mm spacer in front, 25-30mm spacer in rear

265/35/18 front , 285/35/18 rear Hankook RS3

What type of handling characteristics will this setup give me and what are the advantages/disadvantages?

Thank you in advance!

If your going to run a 10.5 up front you may as well run at least a 275 , or even a matching 285 up front . The 275 , 285 hankook combo handles great .

Just my opinion but 10 mm spacers up front and 20mm rear spacers w ould be perfect for 285's all around. I'm still debating on buying an extra pair of 10.5's , just don't know if I want my RPF1's or NTO3's to be a 10.5 square setup.
