    Hi, the car snaps. Well most mid-engines snap @ the limit with the 348 being more nervous. 355s & 360 spins out a lot & I've seen two 997s spun out in front of me @ one of the mid-sections turns, can't remember the no.

    I don't know if having a wider front helps but you can research mods in the 348/355 section as those guys have tons of info there.

    09 tyres are fine IMHO but depends on the condition. I suspect it could be your tyre pressures, did you release some air for TD? What tyres were you using?

    I go to MPS for alignment in Sunway & highly recommend them. All the exotic cars go there including boys from Penang as the two bros are very experienced & professional about it. Anyway, EM recommended spacers for my CS for better road holding so we'll see how they go though some guys hate them.

    yeah.....snapping....its such a b i t c h.....got to learn to avoid those!!! i have been reading on spacers and just might give it a go for the fronts....
    i was running Toyo 285s for the rear which came with the rims, hardly with much wear when i got 'em.....i changed my new tyres to the same after about 4000miles since i got it......(fronts are on Michelin Pilot Sports).... i was told to avoid Toyos but to be honest they are pretty good.....there are some threads here in FC on how they aren't as bad as what some make them out to be......while them being so much more friendly on the wallet!
    have you gotten your spacers for the CS yet? keep us posted if it does any improvement......

    Hi yes. Was sold on 10mm front & 15mm rears, fitted them @ Exquisite M KL. Car feels like it earned a foot wide on foothold :) but haven't got a chance to push it since & one rear wheel rubbed the arch yesterday so went back to let them do adjustment & they do have thinner 12mm spacers. Other than that, the wheels fill up the space much better now so it looks quite badass.

    I'll probably be changing from Pzeros to Bridgestone RE11 as Supersports don't have my sizes.

    sorry i didn't answer this earlier.......yes it was checked by the techs in hand (courtesy of NI) before and after we leave for track.




    I just might take up that offer and take a trip down south! is end of Jan or Feb a good time ;-) ? and prob i could "help" you out unload/offload whatever bucket full of 348 parts you might have lying around taking up space! lol ;-)

    Hello mate! Congratulations, sorry I couldn't make it as I was out of the country. Glad you guys tied up & had a great time. Otherwise, I would love to attend an Indian wedding :)

    When the pics loaded slowly, I thought it's some royalty & true enough. Bride & her groom are always King of the day! Happy holidays ahead.

    perhaps the Kelantan Royalty is just a little bit more subtle about it! but recently the younger brother Tenku Fakhry had sued his then heir older brother (now Sultan) claiming of all things, only a Bentley Brooklands!
