Wait a minute. If the TC105X are 19.0 lbs and the ZE40 is "noticeably lighter" then just how much do the ZE40s weigh?

I have a hard time believing any 18x11 wheel could be significantly less than 19lbs.

I concur. Maybe there's more to the story here (is he basing this off of possibly running different tires on each set of wheels, etc?) Dallas mentioned his ZE - 18x12" weighed at 20.5lb so I don't think the 11" version would be multiple pounds less.

For what it's worth, I took the 18x11 weight # listed off of Wedsports site. I never weighed mine in the flesh.

Same, that's why I opted for the custom 8mm's to bring it up to 73mm centric and give me a little breathing room in one shot.

4 degree camber, ride height is actually higher than pictured. I also used heat gun on the fender lining
Going forward, full lock: just a hair (frame rail)
Going reverse, full lock: yes, definitely scrapes (frame rail) but should clear up once the tire thread contact patch is reduced
Edit: No more rubbing after getting more camber from plates, less from camber bolts

I'm lowering it one turn at a time and driving it around, to see how low it could go

ViciousLSD,

Love stock body 18x11 +15 with A052 295/30x18.

So on front you run -4 degrees of camber.
How about the rear?

I am shocked you are able to fit 18x11 +15 with 295s under stock rear quarters. How?

I am struggling with 18x10.5 +38 with 285s.

Thank you,

+40 for the rear. need SSB trailing arms. stiff springs, shaved fender lip. I have 2degree camber in the rear with adjustable control/toe arms, but I set that for even tire wear. zero to a tiny negative toe helps a bit. I have not completed a track event yet so we'll see how it handles the curbs. I've always needed some stockish height since I have to deal with local streets and my driveway

for the fronts, i think the WL Caster kit helps. relocation of ACD and a bit for the oil cooler helped in pushing back the fender lining. then using a heat gun to flatten the bumps on the fender lining
I'm a noob with autoxing A052s but if could sort out my driving and some odd behavior of my LSD(s), this might be a good setup. I'm trying to get another set of wheels so I can gauge the 285 RT660

4 deg front camber is all from the camber bolt. my silly FAs uses camber locks. I need to figure out how to make it adjustable. Paging @ayoustin is middle camber lock A available?
