Yeah it's 71" so whenever I end up increasing the front downforce with dive planes, fender louvers etc, I won't have much trouble increasing the rear with minor adjustments.
Fully braced trunk lid as well. The pic from the rear makes it look massive.
Yea they are original 507 wheels I had refinished. 265 in the rear and 245 in front I think
Are you running different brand and compound front and rear? Because 245/35r19 toyo r888r would not be properly load rated for the car, for the load rating to be correct it would be a 235/35r19 r888r

for my E63, totally felt the lack of frontal downforce and possibly air being trapped in the front fenders during high speed straights on the track. exciting work here!

Dive planes and fender louvers are on the list to tinker with during the season. Now that the front splitter is strong enough to stand on with these center rods mounted to the bumper beam.
First time having aero like this so it's going to be a learning experience.

Looking good man! How bad was the LSD install? I've had my P30 LSD sitting in my basement for a while now lol.
Also what size spacers and tires are you running on the oem 5 spoke?
LSD wasn't bad at all actually, took me about 3.5hrs in the garage on stands. If you're planning on doing it have a new drive shaft flex joint ready as yours is probably starting to tear. I'm running 12mm spacers on all four corners with 245F/265R tires.
I will say that the the LSD makes a world of a difference.
