Jake Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Your tyres are are too wide. Try fitting 235 front and 255 rears and you'll find the steering and handling much better. Bigger isn't always better, you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Does your wife say that with a straight face Jake? Not since I knocked her teeth out cheers jake, like i said they came with the car. they where brand new i have the receipt makes you wonder what some garages are thinking. I recently changed from 255/35/18 on the front to 235/40/18 and honestly the handling is way better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
