God Spec info 18x10 +40 (pictures, alignment specs, tire info)

[03m_plus]

The consensus looks to be that the camber from natural drop and pulled pins will not rub with this wheel spec. I am also seeing some wheel poke from some folks and I'm looking to get it as flush as possible (in the front).

1. Does anyone have no poke up front without camber plates on a 275 tire?
2. If additional camber is required to bring in the top of the wheel, would increased negative camber from lower ball joints help with this or are camber plates required to induce the additional camber from the top of the structs?

Suspension: Nitron R1 (roadspec spring rates 11k/7k), hardrace rear lower camber arms
Wheels: Volk ZE40 18x10 +40
Tires: 275/35/18 Dunlop Direzza 3
Front:
Camber: -2.5
Toe: 0
Caster 8.0
Rear:
Camber: -2.0
Toe: .08

Zero issues, love the setup. Could go a little lower, but I’m liking the luxury of not having to worry about driveways and speed bumps as this is the family daily…
Might increase the camber based on how many track days I can get in along with wear.

Edit: Added a review of the Nitron R1 here. https://www.civicxi.com/forum/threads/fl5-nitron-r1-coilovers-review.66736/

How do you like the Nirton suspension?

How do you like the Nirton suspension?

I love them. They are just as compliant as OE suspension (comfort) and my e92 M3 with Ohlins Road and Track on the streets and handle better than both setups on track and canyons, after dialed in correctly. I’ll be posting a more in depth thread on the Nitron setup in this forum soon. There just isn’t enough info on them.

I agree on the limited info and is why I asked. I am interested in Nitrons so, I’ll keep my eyes out for your thread, when you post.

BTW….had an E92 ///M3 with the same suspension. I regret selling that car

I’ll link the thread here and I’ll PM it to you once I get a chance to write it.

I just can’t sell the e92…. I thought I’d never say this, but if I had to sell one, the FL5 is the one I’d keep… Just hope that day never comes

Tanabe FunToRide Lowering Springs put on, as far as I know, no one has mentioned using these before. Got them from Japan earlier this year but just now got around to putting them on.

18x10 +40 ZE40s on 275/35. No rub, no pins removed as of yet.

Anyone have insight into why the right side front camber is so far off from the left or better yet how to remedy this?

Curious to see more alignment specs for God Spec sizing on lowering springs..
