O.K. I am trying to figure out what to expect with potential tire setups so that I can decide on which tire sizes I will go with next. The problem is that I have NO idea about tire setups and their effect on handling on our Z's. My goals are:
1. To have an aggressive street driven car that will see some autocross and track duty (just for fun). 2. Increase turn in/reduce understeer (or at least not increase it) 3. Maintain straight line acceleration At the time I purchase my new tires, my setup will be as follows: Stance Coilovers (these may change to APEXi) Stillen Sway bars (probably set to the softest setting) Wheels: F: 19x9.5 R: 19x10.5 Tires: Nitto Invo F: 245/40ZR19 R: 275/35ZR19 I am considering changing my tires to: 1. Bridgestone Potenza RE11's F: 245/40R19 R: 285/35R19 2. Bridgestone Potenza RE11's F: 255/35R19 R: 285/35R19 Which would be the best set up to achieve my goals? What type of results can I expect? Thanks for the guidance all! Last edited by Endgame; 11-19-2010 at 08:58 PM. |
