Good luck Rafi! I would definitely rock this on my F. When time calls for it though. Penske coil overs are legit!

Now I feel like holding off on the wheels and maybe doing the new suspension set up and just dropping some 245/275 PSS on my stocks and be done . Will have to watch this closely

I took a short ride in Rafi's car with (if I'm not mistaken) the prototypes for these Penske coilovers. The roads near his house are anything but velvety smooth. They're narrow, undulating, country roads with the occasional bumps from asphalt repairs. I was impressed with how comfortable the car felt relative to how well it handled. This mod is on my wish list.

We will be ready for install next week. You are welcome to pop over and I will gladly give you a ride just so you have a sense for what it feels like.

Do not do staggered for the track.... you really want to go "square," 275 all around. Plus 255F/295R is way too much stagger, you will have to fight hard to get rid of the understeer. I strongly believe that 275 square setup is one of the best improvements in handling you can achieve.

275's all around is what I run and it's amazing. I want to get another set of PF01's to run this setup on the street.

FWIW 255 square was a massive improvement on track from 225/255. I no longer had to fight the car constantly in the corners. I intend to see what I can do to move up to 275/285 square on the new wheels once it's time for tires.

In theory if you do the square set up you can induce over steer. My car doesnt have an issue with understeer after I went to the F sport rear bar. It tend to over steer on corner exit. My courses seem a bit tighter than the ones I have seen others on. It would be cool to be able to rotate the tires though.

If you guys are running that much extra grip in front why hasnt anyone gone with the front sikky sway bar. Seems odd.
