Did I read correctly that you are running 315's square? WOW, that's a LOT of tire. The front bite is so good on the car, that we can't induce any slip on the 275 fronts, so the added weight just wasn't worth it to us. I notice that you also have VERY heavy springs. Did you do that to prevent squat and loss of camber through the suspension travel? |

I run two sets of wheels one that is 18x11 +18 square with 315 30 tires and 18x10.5 +30 square with 295 30 on them. I am boosted so weight balance and grip is what I continue to push for. The nt01 in 315 are actually really good up front. Turn is good with an equally good initial bit and grip consistent through the turn in and exit. The r888 295 are good for about a session and half before they become greasy and do not hold their grip. I just had my coilovers serviced and upgraded by Fortune Auto and they recommended that for my car setup to go with the heavy springs all around. I think you logic is spot for the reason why some companies recommend heavy spring rates. Not all do and some have more spring to rear than front. I believe HKS is that way.
