My lawn tractor had alot of oversteer and the back tires were just spinning on the grass in turns, rutting up my yard. I put on some 265’s out back and BAM, now it undesteers and I cant even turn in. Should I just downsize to 225’s? I got an idea. Does it turn poorly to the left? If so, just put change the oem 235/40 right rear to a 255/55! that would do it! ---

Lots of AWD cars run staggered setups, but as KK said, the overall diameter is what matters most. I believe in order to not make your center diff tel you to piss off, it should be within 2%. Guys, just let Ern do what he pleases. Don’t give him any advice whatsoever since he won’t listen anyways. Plus when the car is totally fucked, it’ll be one less Evo X driving on the road, thus the values may go up. ---

This thread is epic If a G8 walked you past 65 its going to take a considerable amount of modification to keep up with a LS2 GTO from a roll. Dont you already have an intake and TBE? Id say its time to crank up the boost but youre already having trouble controlling the car so thats obviously a terrible idea. ---

I plan on tracking it all summer first, to get real-time results, not just spirited street driving. If I find that, once I’ve gotten the hang of sharp cornering in this car and its still ass happy, I obviously need stickier tires. And I dont think you guys disagree with that. I’m only on Ventus tires now. I know for a fact its gonna kick…but I dont wanna spend money on some high quality shit if 9.5’s are still not sticky enough. > > One other thing I’m trying to compensate for, is…: I’ve noticed a GTO 6.0L AND a G8 GT both pulled on me at higher speed (65mph +) and thats not something I care to happen anymore. Thus more power will be going into the car over the next year or so (I hope, anyways) and that will make the tires even more likely to break out when throttling around corners. I dont want to buy wheels and tires and then be disappointed that the shits break out when I only have \<400 awhp. Thats stupid. GTO’s and G8 GT’s pull me too. We would be a good run! ---

I have a problem with my front wheels spinning. I have staggered wheels as well. 17 x 9.5 up front and 18 x 10.5 in the rear. you think erngotti, I should go with a 11" wide wheel up front to help with my traction issues? I only currently have a 195-50-17 tire on the front. ---
