9,5“ wheels ET35.
With 10 mm spacers I clear the coilovers (KW V3 clubsport) on the limit and with maxed camber I clear the fender without any rubbing, including the wheel house.
I’d say it maxes out tire width in the front without rolling the fenders 🙂

JayPixelF33 · 04-24-2024, 11:47 PM

Traded in my white 430 for black 440 …. There is a saying here but yeah the B58 is much better than the B46

Did obligatory day one mods
Metal pedals
Upgraded interior lights
Interior door handle protection (CF so +5hp)

Next is ACC install

tumorrow · 04-25-2024, 12:03 AM

Upgraded to the bigger brake kit with rotors from Tarox. Calipers were powder coated, still need to put the M decals on hahaha

After cracking it twice in the the span of 3 weeks (owned it 2+ years), I replaced my VRS style carbon fiber front lip with a somewhat similar AP Designed carbon fiber front lip, purchased from Suvneer. It sits slightly higher and is a bit more subtle. I'm really happy with it.

im_an_alien · 04-26-2024, 10:34 AM

Goodies!

lpaulodt · 04-26-2024, 04:05 PM

Fitted my Ferodo track pads, brake flush, loaded the semi slicks in the trunk for the first trackday of the season tomorrow!

disintegrator66 · 04-28-2024, 06:27 AM

Yesterday..... Fitted rear carbon fiber arch guards and gave the wheels their annual wheels-off wash and wax. Not really a fan of the rear guard's aesthetics. Maybe they'll grow on me..... If not, I'll go to Plan B: painted OEM mud flaps.

ssf556 · 04-28-2024, 08:52 AM

Annual Wax

Where did you get those foot well lights from? And do they work with the red lighting too?

Benzinfabrik offers replacement LED modules for ambient lighting. They offer modules for the footwell, door cards (front and rear) and the radio trim. They're brighter than OEM and offer other colors. They're plug n play and work well.

im_an_alien · 04-29-2024, 07:33 PM

Finished my MPSK install, plus new wheels+rubber. Apex EC7R wheels.
Front: 18x9 et 42 + 255/40 tires
Rear: 18x9.5 et 45 + 265/40 tires
Fronts are close but no rubbing, no spacers.
Jury is still out on the exhaust, I'm a tad underwhelmed. Should have got a Remus.

Prak903 · 05-02-2024, 10:48 AM

Did water pump and belt tensioner. Took 6 hours in total, took my time. Hardest part was getting the damn radiator fan out and back in, and the water pump being stuck on the block since 2017 lol. Took 4 hours to remove, 2 to replace and put everything back and bleed system. Good as new. Beats $1400 at the dealer lol.

Shoutout to our savior Kern for his video, made it very easy to follow.

i heard both in real life and think remus sounds better, not sure why MPPSK is treated as god status on these forums. MPPSK sounds good but its very expensive and tune isnt even as good for 6MT cars.

He ain't lying though. Coming from stock 340 exhaust with Dinan midpipe I expected more. A lot more.
