ok firstly dragging an old past up but just thought id share my 2 cents
secondly, ive read a few bits and peices on all this oversteer, understeer, cars goin where u try to point them thing. i think one of them was bill sherwoods, fwd vs. rwd vs. 4wd...i think Razz

but from what i can recall and interpret from what i have read is that when car is "just pushing limits, but still holding line" as said in first post i remember that each tire will be sliding at an angle of about 7 degrees, so to do this turn with wider tyres (which in every sensible application will have more grip) then the front will be sliding and the rears not sliding, hence understeer. this is prob what the old guy from the tyre shop who was smokin grandads special green grass was getting at.
if i was u put bigger tyres on the front...easier to get it sideways Very Happy Razz and better handling under standard conditions as far as i can see, if not bigger all round just for more grip all over. but i think the dude is right
oh yeah one other thing i read, in rwd cars, the reason why they pitch inwards when u put ur foot down a little half way through a corner is because your tyres start to slide a little more, move outwards, and point the car further round the corner, opposite for fwd, hence fwd drifting is a ridiculous concept, so yeah wider tyres not gonna slide as much=more understeer. but who knows how much by
