I'm so confused... You know that ordering not stock sizes gives you weird grip, but at the same time you're getting grip and not getting grip... It's simple, your sidewall

It's simple, your sidewall flex/wobbliness is 100% due to the wrong tire size, doesn't have anything to do with the wheels. So that's why you're not getting the correct grip...

grip= sticky sidewall= soft = poor steering response and flex on the sidewalls. To clarify my overall goal of this thread is to inform those thinking of plus sizing because everyone else has done it and says its great, there will we negative impacts in my opinion, that's all!

![]() I wish they made a 285/35 for the rear, just to get a BIT wider, but not wide enough to have they problem you're having EDIT: I hope they swap them out for you, but I'd lie and say your wheels are wider? And say look, I'm going to buy narrower wheels that's why I want narrower tires or something. Because they won't like that you didn't use stock tire sizes
