Also, are you able to have enough brake and suspension clearance without the spacers? If yes, I would remove them and see if that makes any difference. You have introduced 3 new things - wheels, lugnuts, and spacers. The clicking has to be related.

Some cars are very sensitive to the style of lugnuts and can cause clicking as described. OP have you reached out to Apex?

I saw a white 5BW in Indianapolis this weekend with the Corsa exhaust (I could see the mufflers) and, from my perspective, it sounded freaking fantastic as he flew past me and made a right turn. Even my friends with me (we were there for the 500) said wow that sounds great.

The 5BW is truly joyful once you figure out the modes (and especially the way you turn all of the TC/ESC stuff off). That V8 makes every day better, I promise. It does need a little more exhaust volume, though. However, the 4BW is hardly 2nd rate in any way, shape, or form. I drove one a...

I bought the 5BW because I take adult passengers in it most days and the 4BW wouldn't work (I'm 6'2"). I have driven 2 different 4BW 6sp cars and LOVED the way they drove, enough that I keep thinking about getting one to pair with my 5BW. The turning radius is dumb but I really don't think...

Heck one of the IMSA edition matte black ones sold for 25k under MSRP brand new last year at Sewell San Antonio. It was offered to someone I know at 20k off, they declined, but then it sold shortly thereafter at 25k off. My point is those "special" editions are literally just sticker jobs with...

Looking forward to your results!

I'm not sure if this answers your question but there are people running the 19x10/11 OE 5BW wheels on their 4BWs. So a 10" width up front should work. You can find some pictures and threads on this forum.

Ok I am ordering those tonight! It can't hurt, right?

350R and 5BW 6sp owner here - what the heck are you thinking?? Unless financially you need to get rid of it, why? I've driven a lot of incredible cars over the years and my 5BW is amongst the most engaging and best. Maybe you need to spend a few more miles driving it to bond with it. It took...

Dude that sounds fantastic!! It's hard to make V6s sound good but they nailed it. Man, I cannot wait for the 5BW version!

E46 M3 came with 18s standard or 19s as a factory upgrade (with the hugely heavy wheels). Current G80 M3 Comp uses 20s in the rear and 19s up front. I have run tons of different wheels and tires on high performance cars over the years and yeah, 22s are now part of the lexicon of high...

26.3" for OE 305/30/19 and 27.2 for 305/30/20 PS4S per Tirerack. The weirdo 305/25/20 is only 26" tall.

The listed 305/25/20 tire size is going to be a tough one to find decent tires in. 305/30/20 is super popular but that's an inch taller tire than OE.

It's interesting the part of their discussion starting about 17:05 where the passenger (Mark) starts describing the rear suspension "walking" over undulations in a straight line - several of us have discussed this sensation in other threads with our basic 5BWs and I was hoping the PP would cure...

This.

Excellent, thank you. I had a semi epic solo test drive of a 2018 AMG GTR a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it (I'm 6'2"). But I have trouble justifying the massive price difference between the S and the R and I'm not sure I want to deal with the complexity of the rear wheel steer and...

Woof woof! The AMG GTS is on my short list for a car in the next year or two. Would appreciate your impressions especially comparing it to your 5BW if you have time.

I have driven on the OE tires in the 30s and wet and didn't die . . . but you do have to be a little careful.
