I think he's smoking crack. Yes the front end will probably let go first, but only because the rear end now has more grip. That's not the same as saying wider rear tyres promotes understeer.

It's worth noting that most people who work at tyre shops are skilled at selling/fitting tyres and little else.


If the front end will let go first because the rear has more grip, then you have by definition increased understeer. The rear slip angle has decreased compared to the front.

BTW I think everyone should read "Car suspension at work: theory & practice of steering, handling & roadholding" by Jeff Daniels.
