Theoretical setup ability to work well on track. - Toyota Yaris Forums

Im thinkin so far, getting tanabe df210s, and running them with 15x7 rota slipstreams. What tire size is best so that i will not rub (205/50/15?)...(i cant afford aftermarket so i will be rocking stock struts for a bit) Theres like 10000 threads about tanabe vs progress vs everything else, im pretty set on tanabe df210s as long as you think theyll be better on the track than the progresss ones...and im tryin to go for a lower profile look with minimal wheel/fender gap.

Tanabes will be lower profile, I actually really like the stiffness of the Progress springs.

Need to know your offset to be helpful.

205/55/15 or 195/55/15 would be better. 50 series is for 16" wheels, at least for me.

what are the rates of the progress springs? we need a full listing of springs, their drop, and spring rates bad.
