After being a lurker for a while, I finally pulled the trigger on a new to me 2012 CO/White Boss 302. It will be used as a track toy come next spring/summer. It had about 12k miles and the original owner was a big enthusiast and took great care of it. Shoot, it even had the original tires on it (although they are in need of replacement). I am very much looking forward to seeing what it can do on the racetrack.
I have been searching the forums, but couldn't easily locate the correct advice on wheel/tire for dual purpose use. Many people praise a 18 inch square setup, but that seems like it will need some other suspension adjustments.
I want to start out without the threat of too much/additional oversteer and then try to dial it out.
Given this, is there a staggered 18 inch wheel / tire setup that would resemble the factory stagger?
I like the Forgestars and probably would just order them in 18, but want to know the specs for the wheels AND tires.
What other "must haves" are needed to get this machine track ready? (planning on changing brake fluid and checking pads/rotors) i.e. which pads work well for dual purpose duty.
Thanks!
