Hay Bill,
The 10s I'm using in front (5.5 backspace)cause severe scrub radius problems. .....the steering is very heavy. E J Fontaine was complaning about the same problem on his car at Sacramento....his was worse than mine. The futher out one spaces them, the worse it would get. I can't go in any farther. A taller tire might help, but it would have to be unacceptably tall. I'm about ready to go to a narrower wheel tire combo....but not power steering. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Got any help? |
