people that actually drives opinions are all that matters to me, btw.
I think that might induce too much understeer to hardpark. You may want to reconsider your sizes.

Almost 16. This is the age where I'm gonna know most about hard parking.

It cant be any worse then when I ran 235/255 stagger RT615's. But auto-x events are different from mountain roads which is the only place I put that set up to use.

Still I dont think you'll have too much of an issue, if you need to just keep your foot on the gas and get the back end to rotate. The car should rotate in pretty well. You could alway try running with the stock rear sway bar or no rear sway at all.

Tim, how is your front suspension setup? dampening, toe, camber, etc?

I had those tires on my FN's a ways back and I actually really liked them. I had those same sizes front and rear as well, but I was also running staggered wheels. I think you will be fine though understeer wise. I mean if your too worried about it, I'm still down to trade.

Idunno, I really didnt like the bfg's that much, In my head when I drive on that tire I think, OH these are automatically going to suck.. idk ever since I drove RT615's, Neovas, Direzzas and the Kuhmo XS .. I dont want to drive anything else ..lol
Federals are sweet too

And the understeer wasnt too bad w/ the BFG's w/ a 225/40 on a 9.5..but I cant remember the last time I had a terrible amount of understeer..

Just go 245's all around. I was never happy with a stagger. Understeered with light throttle. It's going to oversteer on throttle basically always. Might as well at least have the option of neutral under light throttle.

Are those bars you have adjustable? Tune the balance with those with 245x4.
