Hi All Supra Lovers...problems for me.

http://www.carbibles.com/tyre_bible.html this explains everything about tyres.

 

On the site in that link there is a tyre size calculator. People often want wider rubber on their cars for improved grip etc. When they do this, they have to reduce the sidewall size (the 40 or 45 in this case) in order to maintain a constant rolling circumference. So long as the rolling circumference isn't too far off stock, they should be ok.

 

In your case the rolling circumference has been increased, but not by a massive amount (try putting the difference figures in and see the results). I can't see how this would affect the handling of the car to the extent that you are describing.
