How much understeer would a 265/295 tire combination have on the track? I am asking because I am trying to decide on a good tire and tire size that can be used on the street and light track work until I can afford a dedicated track set up. I plan on taking a few driving courses so I can have real instruction on how to drive, up to now its just been autox events. Wheels are SSR Type F 19x9.5 et22 F and 19x10.5 et15 R. I am still pretty new to this so it may not be an issue at all. I would like to fit a 275 up front since I am looking at ADVAN AD08's but I can get RE-11's in 265/285. I am investing in tires, brakes (AP brakes from a member) and instruction at this point. Its a base 370z so the brakes are no where close to the task. Wheel to wheel racing with this car is not in the cards anytime soon, just HST and autox.
