I had great luck with the 13.8 rears. But if you have the opportunity, go to 2-piece. The rears I just put on are running cooler than the fronts even with the 2-piece fronts and front ducting. Very very impressive and so light!

 

I have thought about two piece and may in the future, but for now I am okay with what I have. I don't have your experience or ability on the track at this point, but hope to someday outgrow the current set up.

 

Delivered today, ready for shop install next week :-)

 

Nice . . . do you have emissions inspection in Illinois; and what are you doing about the cats?

 

Illinois has emission inspections and this is the catted h-pipe

 

I run slotted 14" stoptechs front only. I rather enjoy them however am coming from GT blank front rotors anything is an improvement. Keep in mind I am using their 4 pot pistons as well. I have 3 events on the original stoptech pads. I may need to replace after Road America in July though. I will monitor. Eventually I will be adding slotted on the rears as well.

 

You lucky SOB!! I too am jellie. Did you trailer down there or drive? Just asking as I am a poor dude that doesn't have a trailer or tow vehicle. So I am confined to tracks within reasonable driving distance.

 

Lol, I barely get by also, I had to rent a trailer for COTA.

 

My season is about to start. I haven an event at Grattan, then 8 days laMter is Gingerman, and then 8 days after that is Mid-Ohio. I still need to get my new tires on, and I just realized as I was swapping my Cartobech XP10 pads on that I only have ~4mm left on them.

Grattan will not consume much, but Gingerman and Mid O will. So I'm in need of new pads. And I wanted to try something else, so I ordered Raybestos ST43s. Does anyone have any experience with those?

 

those are my go to pads for rear. They're excellent. I use the ST47's up front and love them as well. Great modulation, great stopping power, and excellent wear characteristics I've found. I think you'll like them. If you want Raybestos for the fronts I might have a source for you as well

 

Hey Derek, sweet, glad to hear it!

I will stat with the ST43s on the front. I don't run slicks, and I have no aero, so a less aggressive bite is hopefully what my car needs. If I like them I'll switch to Raybestos on the back too.

Where do you get your pads? Shoot me a PM if you can.

 

PM sent!

 

You got a busy time ahead, good luck!

 

Thanks SGwick, you as well!

And here is a few pics of y new rubber.

 

Wow what sizes? They look huge

 

I like biiiiig blocks! They are 275/35-19 all around

 

lol nice, I hate that I can't like (button) using Garage Talk app

 

Lookimg good! Hope they work great for you. Found a deal on another set of wheels and tires here... I can't pass on an amazing deal. Now to figure out if the 305's fit up front...

 

Please let us know if you had to make any changes for 305s to fit up front and what the tire tread width was

 

i believe a small spacer is needed, which I'm getting with the wheels. No issue since I run the 3" ARP studs. I'll get some measurements once I pick up the setup!
