15" Rota slipstream clear Willwood Calipers on 310mm disks with a 5mm spacer.
dont go different tyres front to rear as the diameters are slightly different.

Keep us posted on the clearance that you get with the slipstream 15's please as there could be 6 pots available and I would upgrade if I can fit them under 15's.
With regards to different size tyres (width) front and rear, I'm still not convinced there would be a diameter difference. Incorrect / different tyre preasures would have an effect on diffs and transfer box. I'm not a fan of spacers but found a better degree of stability in the corners (on the track) after fitting 10mm spacers. Now that I have found a 15" wheel that will fit over my 4 pots without spacers I want to keep that lack of understear feeling and wish to try a few permutations with regards to the setup.
1. 15x205 all round with 10mm spacers on the rear.
2. 15x195 front / 15x205 rear with no spacers.
3. fit Ingalls fastcam camber adjusters to rear 2deg +ve camber.
4. 2deg +ve rear 1deg +ve front.
5. all of the above but all mixed up.... :doh:
This will all take up a lot of testing and I should really try to monitor transfer box temps to see what put's a strain on it. I will be messing about with other mods at the same time.
BTW, it's not uncommon for touring cars to use two, sometimes three different compound tyres at the same time on different axle hubs depending on the track.... complicated buisness. :shock:
