What would you guys suggest for seating? I found that my last track day I was having some bad back pain from the bolster digging into my side and having to brace hard for left turns. I wanted to get a fixed back bucket (OMP TRS-E XL) but I was reading I would need a hans device to use a 5 point harness correctly.
I don't want to spend too much money on the car right now, I just want seat time until next year (building a house ATM). Any tips? |

How do we feel about tracking a 275 mounted to a 10.5" wheel - it looks like its stretched too much IMO - don't want the tire to come off the bead on a hard corner - my old set up I ran 275 on a 10" wheel.

It will look stretched versus a 10", yes. Supporting the tire is key and a 10.5" on a 275 isn't too bad. Nitto shows you can run up to an 11" wheel on a 275-width NT01, for example.

It depends on the tire. The specs should list the range of rim width and optimal width.

FYI I drive my street car with OEM seats, OEM three point belts with Hoosier R7. It's really not that big of a deal. |

The Tire Rack website indicates the DZ3 in 275/35R18 will work on a 9-11" wheel, with 9.5" being ideal. What's interesting is that tire in 285/30R18 only shows 9.5-10.5" with ideal being 10". FYI this took me all of 60 seconds to find.

Test drove this cayenne gts today.
https://www.carmax.com/car/18164072 We were a little underwhelmed with the power. We both expected it to be a little more peppy. Decent power for an suv, but it's nothing to gawk over. I'm having second thoughts about it...

The tire will actually perform better on a 10.5. The wider wheel will provide better sidewall support and a slightly wider tread width. I think a 275 on a 10.5 is great.

I have a Tundra, I get not wanting to drive a pickup often. But if you want a lot of power and a lot of luxury, and want to tow, go smash that Ford/Chevy easy button imo Hell you can even get the Ex or Tahoekon with that powertrain without the “remove entire body for service” service position of the Uber German SUV’s
