6ul 205/50/15 Federal RSR or AD08

[quang]

Hi Everyone,
just a quick one, has anyone had any scrubbing issues with the Federal RSR or AD08 on a EK civic with 15x8 +36 6ULs?

I'm aware that the RSR does have a wider tyre than what is listed I.e. 205 RSR runs more like a 215/225 profile.

I'm about to get tyres just don't want to end up having to change them because the tyre srucbs.

Thanks

I run 205 50 15 rsr on my 15x8 6ul, on an eg but they fit easy!

Also should add no guard rolling has been done only 1 deg neg camber.
Lil_foy, how low is your car? and how are the rears? do they scrub?

[lil_foy]

You'll probably need to roll the rears, Front should clear fine.

I run 13mm spacer front and 5mm spacer rear with mine but I run a fair amount of camber for track. Car is low too. No scrubbing but on your setup with rears rolled it will be fine.

Highly recommend rsr's too! Great tyre!

I have 15x8 +36 6UL's with 205/50/15 Federal RSR with no spacers and they fit. Rolled the rear guards but could get away without it I recon, but better to do it and not have chunks missing from your tyre if you come across a big bump.

Height, spoon springs and dampers (I think 30mm lower than DC2R)





How low is your car?

[quang]

My car is 2-2.5 fingers above the tyre. A little higher than yours from the looks of it.
I have scrubbing issues both front and rear. More so on the rear.
This doesn't seems to make sense to me as i know there are other people on here that have no issues at all with their cars dumped.

I currently have 1.5 neg camber at the rear and 0.5 neg camber at the front.

I think its best to get your guards rolled, my rears scrubbed with 15x7+38 6ul's with toyo r888 195/55/15 (on coilovers only) tyres were dirt cheap and leftover thats why the awkward size lol

[quang]

what about the fronts?

[duzy]

front was no problem, i only rolled my rear guards

How do you find the RSR man? Ive had them on the front of my track car for 6 months and they still have plenty of tires, will definitely get them again

[quang]

Hey sorry, didn't end up going with the RSR's got the AD08's instead. Haven't had the chance to give them a good run yet as car scrubs contrary to everyone elses experience.
But if the RSR's last that long on a track car, i'll probably get them next time, AD08s were expensive.

How much did you get the AD08s for?
And how come people are using 8" rims for 205 tires, I thought 7" was more suited to 205?
