The car in the link only holds the best time because DavePK and Krazik (and their CCWs) haven't been there.

P.S. ASM has Prodrive GC-07C 17X9 wheel all around with 245/40/17 tires all around, just didn't know the offset of the GC-07C wheel.

Well BECAUSE the ASM S2000 has wider fenders front and back.

So you canno tuse thsi setup for your S2000.

I really wonder why you should go larger than 8 in front and 9 inch in the rear with the S2000 on the race track ?!

You're just causing more drag and have more weight on the wheels!

we've been running 9s and 10s for 2 years+ and have turned lots of fast laps on them.

How many laps you turned on your ideal 8 and 9" setup?
