rule of thumb:

wider front better turn-in (excessive = oversteer bias)
wider rear better straight-line stability (excessive = understeer bias).

you will need at least 10mm change to make a noticable handling/feedback difference on street.

you will also notice wheel rate changes from about 10mm given you are running the same tires and psi.

on my car i had ET15 on the rear and was having slight understeer bias with ET38 so added a 5mm on the front (ET33). perfect.

Wow pedz, it's fantastic what 15 mm will do for you!

Haha, same here. I think I go into more shock than the car sometimes.
