Default You will likely rub on the track. High speeds and quick transitions will

cause the car to go lower than it ordianrily would on the street. You will need at least 3/8" more height to avoid chipping the paint and bending the fenders slightly.

Default Congratulations on the set up. I get a little rubbing on mine as well, I need to raise the ride

height a little. I have got the Motorsports and my street tires and rims (BBS CH 18's 235's) rub a little durning hard cornering. Oddly enough my track tires and rims (OZ's 245's) barley rub at all. I think the Dunlop track tires have a shorter sidewall. Very happy with the suspension.

Default Do yourself a big favor... Make sure you install ALL the adjustment slots/holes

I didn't have them the first time around and was not super happy with the stock rebound settings. I've since gone from one Tracksport setup to another and made sure I put the adjustment holes in. Now I tweak around with it all the time.

Default I am at 25.75, 255/18/35's, rolled fenders

This setup seems to work pretty well.

Default Roll the fenders.

You're not going to eliminate the rubbing by raising the car 1/4" or by adding more rebound.
