Everyone complains about the understeer induced by a traditional staggered setup... Is there any reason why no one seems to be interested in the presumably oversteer inducing reverse staggering arrangement?
LOL, check this vid from DTM Power out. Dado sure mastered this fine art.Plaz 330i said:Although, come to think of it, swinging the rear end around for a routine left turn should merit some sort of recognition, if just for comic and showmanship reasons alone.![]()
LMAO! Oh, that's funny. If I saw someone doing that on my way to the grocery store or whatever, though, I'd just think they were an idiot.Mystikal said:

this is exactly what I was thinking. if I went 235 al lthe way around, I could then adjust out any under- or over-steer using the adjustable Dinan sways on my car and with tire pressure.webguy330i said:I agree with Mystikal. If you wanna overcome the factory understeer, why not just go un-staggered (or even keep the staggered setup) and bump up the rear sway?
Sounds like you've already got it done; now get to tirerack.com and get yerself some 235/40 S03s!31st330i said:

BTW, are you planning on replacing the 8.5" rear wheels with 7.5" fronts? If not, the width of the rim will probably pull the 235 out a bit more than the front rims will, which will give you a *slightly* staggered setup.
