if you are using the car strictly as a daily driver, get the 265 in the front as it is safer. if you want every bit from your car, get the square setup as it will make the car turn in quicker.

you shouldnt get crazy oversteer with this car unless you have regular tires or screwed up suspension. with the 265/285 setup, car barely got sideways at the track.


The Z, in stock form, has a ton of understeer. I have a feeling it's to help prevent the average driver from killing him or herself out with a relatively high-power, short wheelbase, RWD machine. Still does really well stock provided you don't overdrive it.
