how doesnt it make sense...
hes running a tire which fits on the rim...the way its supposed to.
maybe he plans on modding the car later for more power...
and if not, have you ever tracked your tc? either autox or drag racing?
even though our cars are slow stock, they can still spin through first gear in alot of situations.
i went to the track last week. my first run i launched at only 2,500 RPM in VHT and was still able to spin in first.

KCTTC - Damn -3.5 camber front and rear! That's crazy! With the more positive caster, do you have better road feel? I'm trying to figure out what specs to run as well since I want some track time in the future.

I used 2 Camber bolts on each side as well. I got about -2.2 on each side right now. Can you not get that much? Are you setting it up right?

I liked it at first site, but thought about it... Doesn't make sense. Too much tire for such a low power car.

The positive caster made a huge difference in straight line stability and turn in. These settings are obviously not going to be good for a daily driver. I only drive my Tc about 50 miles a week.
I'm currently building a custom turbo setup. I will be installing the clutch, flywheel and differential over the winter. The car should be out in the spring ready for some track use.

just because u can spin in first doesnt mean ur track worthy or something. its not hard to.
now the wheels look great . 275s not so hot, too much meat for me. specially on our cars. If your turbo and ur making significant power, yes.
but the car looks sick !. turbo that sucker !
