switch your fronts to the back and your backs to the front
I honestly dont know if that will help because the inside of the back tires are worn due to camber.But i will try.

and mattback ive realized i made a bad choice going with these springs but this was like 2 years ago a little while after i got the car and i jst wanted the car lowered.

And thanks for the help.any other constructional criticsm is welcome.

well i live in bradenton too so its my town. heheh i've lived in bradenton for a long time now.

disregard my switching tires deal if the rears are almost shot. only switch if the rears are in ok or better condition then the fronts. but if they're not then go with my original statement of getting new tires. go with a 215/45/16 Azenis for the front.

drift bible says ebrake cures all understeer











only half true. switch your front and back tires, i make that mistake often and end up switching front and back at just about every event. thats what i get for buying whatever i can find at used tires stores cant get a setup im familiar with!

its true.

anybody that remembers yohan's car ( Blue RPS13 at DDAY 1 with kouki taillights, type-x wing) must remember him understeering all over the place with his car.

i was able to slide it around the track at dday without many problems, just by making the rear tires have less grip than the fronts.. just keep them spinning more!

Has the car always had an understeer problem (like even with the previous set of tires)? You might also want to try changing your swaybar setup. A bigger one in the rear, or a smaller one in front will give the car more oversteer and even it out. When I first started drifting my Camaro I always had a problem with too much understeer. Most cars come from the factory with the tendancy to understeer. So I slapped on a bigger rear OEM swaybar I got at the local yard for $30 and it fixed my problems.
