Effect of wheel width differences? What happens to the handeling of the car as the difference in width between the front and rear wheels increases? Like say 18x8 with probably a 270 tire and an 18x10.5 or 11 out back with a 305 or 315 tire.
Thanks,
Alex

Car might push a little more in the turns, thats about it.
More grip out back, and less grip up front leads to understeer. You really don't have anything to worry about unless you are pushing the limits of your car....in which case you should be on a race track anyways.
