Hey,
I am starting to look into what rims and tires I want to get soon. I am looking at getting some all black 03 Cobra style rims, 17x9" in the front, and 17x10.5" in the back. I'm looking at getting 315 Nitto drag radials in the back.
So here's the question... I know with the big sticky meats in the back (and smaller, not-so-sticky tires in the front) I will be inducing understeer in the turns. If I put drag radials on the front, will I reduce the amount of understeer in the twisties? Also, it would make sense to me to have the same tire compound on all corners to even things out and bring the car back to as neutral as possible in the turns...
(The car is pretty much a garage queen most of the time, so the increased tire wear of drag radials all the way around really isn't an issue.)
