Sun, 21 July 2002 23:01 Helmann wrote on Sun, 21 July 2002 9:20 PM It doesn't matter how much wider the back tyres are. The car will lose grip and understeer at the same point regardless of weather the back and front are the same size or not. With larger rear tyres tho u also reduce oversteer grip problems. Look at all the supercars. Porche, ferarri, etc. They have much greater tyres on the back than front For every action there is an oppisit but equal reaction, there for if increasing the back tyre size reduces oversteer then it MUST increase understeer, of course increasing the back end grip will cause the car to understeer as this means the front end has to work much harder to try and get all that grip in the back to change direction, and as for supercars, porche, ferarri etc. they have a much better suspension set up then your car and the suspension was designed for those size tyres, your car wasn't it was designed for 185 or something around that. and don't quote me on this but i don't think Camber will change a thing, the main use of camber is during cornering when the suspension is compressed it makes more tyre contact on the road, your having problems in trying to get the car to turn in the first place and the only ideas i can think of to try and get the front end to turn in better would be to maybe increase the toe in angle camber may help for the actual cornering but wont really play a part in getting the car to turn in the first place. try turning then ently apply a little bit of break preassure and see if the car then begins to turn easier as that will then be placing more load on the front wheels and there for reducing the back end grip. but another thing you could try is playing around with tyre preassures try running higher preassure in the rear wheels see how that changes the cars handling then try running higher preassure in the front might find it will make a difference.
