ok, it's silly question time again.......
i was speaking with a guy driving a DSM GT 3000 (stealth) with the AWD set up, now he has installed 225 front and 255 rear tires, which not only looks real nice but he maintained didn't effect the power split ! maybe the set up is different, but with the gt-4's 50 - 50 split front to back this set up would not work, plus with the heavy rear on it cornering would be not be improved.......... any thinking from you guys would be nice, as the question is now floating and we're intrested to know.......... Thanks --------------------  Life is for living, and you don't get a second chance Take care now !! |

I did try 225 rubber with the OE 16" rims, but wasn't that impressed. Car tramlined too much for my liking and could be quite skittish on rough surfaces. Now on 215s with new 17" rims and handling has improved greatly.
