It has been I while since I posted here, but the search for a good setup (still) continues. In Europe there is very little information available. I'm still enjoying myself a lot taking the car to the track in stock form, but there are some area's where I really would like to improve.
Car dives under braking (My TI on Circuit Zandvoort in Holland):
Body roll (my TI on Circuit Zolder in Belgium):
I've decided to go for the following upgrades already:
- Bilstein B12 Suspension Set (Shock + Spring - Non-adjustable)
- Ferodo DS 2500 Brake Pads
- ATE SuperBlue Brake Fluid (DOT 4.0)
- Goodridge Brake Lines (Coated)
Concerning Wheels & Tires, I was given the advice to either go for 205/50 or 225/45 tire sizes for semi-slicks or full slicks. I was also told to use 17 inch wheels maximum and keep the same tire sizes all-round. Any comments? Are there any OEM BMW wheels for these tyres sizes?
Any idea's on how to reduce the body roll? Occasionally it even lifts a wheel..
Thanks for any comments !
