What did you do to your Type R today?

[NapalmEnema]

Added a sprint filter. Im staying mostly stock. Not looking for big power.

Did you notice a difference with the filter?

Happy to report that I have not rubbed at all yet. I have had my 180 lbs buddy and a 6FT butcher block inside and still didn't rub.

I think the /40 is what's making you rub.

probably ... I mean its not bad it hardly happens and I have to be loaded but still its annoying when it does lol....thx

having driven a little bit since install. i dont know if its just because texas is starting to cool down now or if the filter made that much of a difference. wot makes nice turbo spooling sound; can hear the bypass valve now with enough load. pulls a little harder in each gear, especially on the highway. its nice improvement overall.

Can confirm 255 40s will almost certainly make you rub at some point depending on the sidewall profile, but always being in R mode helps a lot. I almost never rub now that I'm always in R mode.

i have the same size tire and i dont rub at all. conti dws06 p. im not lowered. not tracking if you are. my wheels are 18x9 +45 so that may be why i dont rub.

Installed the winter tires - Enkei SS05 18x8 40mm with 235/45R18 Continental VikingContact 7.

Drove about 100 miles in heavy rain/wind and 40°. Lots of wheelspin at launch and even in 2nd and 3rd if I punched it at all.

Lateral grip seemed good even with lots of wet leaves on the road. I tried a couple of hard braking tests. Those seemed good, too.

Can we get some photos? That's a gorgeous wheel.

Sure. The car's kind of grubby. I spent this AM on dirt roads in the rain.

Def over spent. But does make washing the car a lot more enjoyable.

Winter set on....

Got some more professional photos taken of my new wheel setup, along with some other modifications I have done recently.
