general questions about brakes.. I got some new wheels for my car.. from the stock 14s to 15s [205/50s] the braking didnt really change. Only had the the brakes lock once during hard breaking.
Now I changed my set again.. from the 15s [205/50s] to 16x7 [225/45s] When braking.. The car feels like it will just slide out. I havent tested a hard brake yet [just got them on sat night.] The tires on them are ES100s which are real sticky. Can anyone explain this? Or is it just me. |
