315/35/20 uh oh maybe ran into some problems

[Anthony]

That's what will happen. They are misaligned from the factory. Some are worse than others. Bmr fought this issue to get their parts out.

Holes in the frame are huge, no way to center it.

Without a fix ;-)

Harder to see with stock width wheels and tires

I could see it on mine as it was bad. But it was REAL apparent when I put 315's in the back. Drivers side tire stuck out 5/8"

I loosened the bolts slightly and Pryed it around till I got the cradle as close as the eye can get it. Then tightned up and looked again.

If bmr doesn't release their fix before the track opens. I'll be going to watson to have them do it. $275

its just as Anthony stated the rear is shifted at times, but so far we have not had a issue with any of the setups we have done.

Paul, The last car I had that "cat walked" did so because the rear end had been
damaged in an accident. That was almost 40yrs ago. It would be interesting to
see images and how a solution could be engineered. A little CAD programming
and CNC work. Hopefully this is what BMR and perhaps Steeda will come out
with.

It'll be a big asset to the S550 community for that solution to come out.

brotha there is nothing to worry about, get the wheels put them on make sure the alignment was as stated for camber and toe and you'll be good. I've done this fitment before on the S550 same tire size no problems.

Till you hit the first bump

I just drove 200 miles today with no issues.
What problems are you guys experiencing?

315s in motion*

You're the best! I appreciate all of the info man :cheers:
Message me, need some wheel info anyway!

FYI: This is what a ricers -2 degree camber looks like.

315s taking bumps like a champ.

Um... That entire drive was over smooth even pavement. I saw one seam that could maybe be called a "bump," and some superficial cracks, but that's the smoothest pavement I've ever seen.

Like, how would those tires do on normal springtime pavement?

 

[Voodoo]

275s are perfect IMO!
Here is a shot before the drop.

What size are your rear tires? 19s or 20s?

 

[NewSVO]

For all you guys running 315s, how did you get your speedo recalibrated?

 

[Laztug]

You can fix it with a tune.

 

[Laztug]

Wheels are 20s. Check my build thread for more info.

The wheels do not rub under daily driving / wot/ hard turns. I do not plan to take it through the f150 test track so I have no idea how it would fair there Jimmy.
