Also, I was taking a closer look at the rims with the R888R tires and the lip sticks out past the tire's shoulder by 1/4 of an inch. My wheels with the PSAS4 tires, the lip is sunken into the tire so the tire's shoulder protects it. Anybody else with the R888R tires have the same issue?

they are track rubber, so I'm not surprised they don't have curb protector shoulders, I've got an appointment in an hour to get some R615+ tires on my car so now I'm wondering if mine will be the same, lol
I know they are meant for the track, just thought they would be more flush to the lip. Let me know if your tires do the same.

When I swapped to the TTS front calipers my RSe10s fit with tons of room but my factory 19s didn’t. I run a 3mm hub centric spacer from ecs

Not all tires have them. Guess R888Rs don't.
Oh well, guess I will just have to be extra careful with them.

3mm is like nothing and I prefer H&R spacers.

Yes because I didn’t need anything special as I run the factory wheels with winter rubber. I run 5mm neuspeeds in the rear.

Swap out those heavy, big brakes for a non-pp setup and run 15” slicks.. if you’re really serious about being a drag car. Lol.
