nice find bro.
This is all we run. The 19X10 Clears the PP front strut without a spacer(not sure if they clear non PP cars). We run our .650" spacer to get the front track out as far as we can. We run square 285's. They are quality wheels which after a year of track time have had no issues. 3 days at Daytona recently touching 150MPH. Its a quality wheel for dirt cheap.

These started life as Satin Black.

This is truly awesome info! I was looking to possibly get 18x9.5's from Apex as a dedicated track wheel/tire set up. This is truly affordable for someone who only goes a couple times a year. Did you weigh them? Are you running a BFG?

Thanks. Good find.
What lug nuts are you using with those?
These are ARP 1/2" Studs with open lug nuts. We are into function more than looks.

Slightly lighter than Factory PP wheels but honestly I have been trying to handicap this car for driver improvement. BFG Comp 2's. What Skip Barber and Ford Performance runs in their schools. I would rather drive a poor handling car smooth than a good handling car poorly.

I love my helmet cam, it picks up my rear view mirror. Nothing gives me more satisfaction than messing with Z06-7's and GT3-4's in the technical sections. When they tend to roll through turns due to massive grip I am usually at full throttle at the apex so I just drive away.

I have no issue with guys that want to run a track tire. Most of my Customers are faster than me due to grip, some due to driving.

Yes this is a great combo for a serious student not looking to allow the car to hand them laptimes.
