From the Wendover Pro Solo. First time on my new tire setup, 245/35/17 R1R on 17x9" Enkei RPF-1 and 225/45/16 on FD's:

Hard to tell, but if you look at how the rear tire is loaded, I'm just finishing recovering from a slide:

Hey Inspector, I didn't realize it at the time since I'm not on these forums much but we were both at the Farmington Tour. I was taking photos over the weekend and have a few of you if you want them.
PM me if you're interested.
Thanks for coming to NM, I hope you had fun!

Here's one of my favorites from the Farmington Tour:

+22. Fits with no spacers, however you definitely need an assload of camber, rolled fender lip, and a serious fender pull to make them not rub.

cmedrive, I would absolutely LOVE to see the pics! Our camera guy from the Utah Region was running in the same group as me, so no time for pics!

Here's my email if you want to send full resolution:

Thanks!!!

BTW, what were you driving??

Not to be "that guy," but are pulled fenders STX legal?

E. Fenders may not be cut or flared but the inside lip may be rolled
to gain additional tire clearance. Flares that are part of body kits
may be attached to the stock fenders. Plastic and rubber wheel
well splash shields may be modified for tire clearance and to
accommodate a rolled inside fender lip. The intention is to
permit fitting the maximum allowable tire size, and the
modifications may serve no other purpose (e.g. air intake, brake
ducts, etc.). No other changes to the stock fenders or wheel wells
are permitted.

Pretty sure a pulled fender would fit under the "flare" line(s) above.

Nothing was cut, no metal save for the inner fender lip itself was bent.

Everything was done within factory tolerances, all the bolts were loosened, pulled to the edges of their holes, and tightened back down.

I'm sure you know this is commonly done in stock class to gain more negative camber, the o'l loosen all the bolts, push/pull like hell and tighten them back down.

ah, pulled *that* way. When I think of a pulled fender, I think of a very aggressive roll that not only pushes the inner lip out of the way, but changes the shape of the outer fender. Yeah, moving the fender around on the stock bolts / holes ain't no thayng. Just keepin you honest

 

[Inspector 24]

No problem. Helps me practice explaining why my fenders look like they don't fit.

Eventually I'll get pics of the car showing how much I was able to move things around...the gap to the hood isn't bad at all, but I was able to produce a pretty good gap to the door. Ultimately I gained another 1/2" of clearance up and out, now I've got more room than I had with the 17x8!

My friend Joe racing my P5 in his first autocross.

great pic conewagon. How did he like it??

 

[conewagon]

Thanks. Does anyone ever not like it? He is a mechanic/ huge motorhead, he loved it.

 

[cmedrive]

I was surprised by how much i like it over road-racing. its more affordable and less wear and tear to boot!
Another from the Farmington Tour!

Pics from 5-24 Steel Cities SCCA Event:

 

[conewagon]

great photos, how did you do?

 

[coondogg]

1st place,

but only 1 other car is ST...

...the GTI was missed classed but on all season tires.

 

[fatti03msp]

i think i got last coon haha, but i think for the Beaverun events i need to set my suspension in the rear softer, cause my ass didnt slide out at all at North Park.

But here are few from NP and BR

 

[conewagon]

It looks like you can see rubber flying off of your drivers side front tire in the first pic.....you didn't get that gate did you?

I also like the placement of the Mazda signs in the shot 2nd from the bottom.

 

[mspeedP5]

Is your exhaust passing below your rear suspension???

But i did make it haha, i just didnt post up all the pics from the event. but here is the pic of me making it haha.
