Another update after a year or so of running...there has been slight bit of rubbing on the inner wheel arch liner which I failed to pick up upon first inspection {running 285 Cup 2's rubber on 380 rear wheel}. I've now fitted the 380 Cup spacers, which bring the rear into a 410 type set up. -
Further update running 285's {Cup 2's} with no spacer on a 380. Pounded around Bathurst Circuit all day.....tires were fine, no rubbing. All good. What a track !
-
Yep, should be OK
-
Standard ride height. Standard Bilsteins. Standard 380 Sport set up. No rubbing what's so ever 🙂 You can fit 285's with confidence.

We did around 24 targa stages … and a few other runs that we know of 😜
-
Just a follow up... after 2200 in 4 days around Tasmania , with spirited driving and some pretty big bumps etcs....not one bit of rubbing of the rears....

My 380...had it just on a year. Absolutely love it

Here's one the 380 CUP's in Aus...at work:-)
-
Hi Jang....Another Aussie 380 ! I've heard there are 4, and two 380 Cup's....total 6. I've also heard one of the 380 sports has been upgraded to cool charging and far more HP with Komotec goodies. One of the 380 Cups is blue and was used on a TV story back in the day.. Thanks for info on tires...peace of mind:-)
-
Haha...something like that.. There's only a couple of 380's in Australia so not much info/experience with them, lots of 410's so an easy mistake to make. I own the thing and didn't even know there was a difference! Yes the 285mm Cup 2 looks a lot better and takes away that look of the 380 rear being under the guard too far, plus the extra contact patch 🙂
-
Wheels are 10X18 like a 410....offset looks same as 410 but might not be. There tires are extremely flush with the rear guard now and look "right" Hesitant to put a spacer in there as that would push them out even further.....I'll run it a while as is and if rubs, I want it to hit on the inner tub , not the guard:-) If it does touch, I'll pop the 3mm spacers in there.

Brand new take offs a 410...

I ended up replacing Elise with Exige 380 🙂
-
Hi all Hopefully the Exige experts out there can give some advice.... Just had my Cup2s on Exige 380 replaced. ..they looked a bit different and further investigation revealed they are 285/30/17 as found on the 380 Cup/410, rather than the 265/35/18 I had previous , which is a standard 380 rear. {New fronts are the same} Question I have: will this cause any issues with rubbing, handing differences, TC etc. Any help would be great.. Thanks in Advance . Pete

Haha..yeah I had the mic too close to the exhaust and audio gain too high... sound is a little distorted and misleading, although the Larini exhaust is pretty loud
