joe1joe 3 Posted December 22, 2009 (edited) i have just bought some dimma wheels for my 205, currently i have got 205/40/17 with bigger spacers at the back than the front which promots bad understeer so i have the dimma wheels to try and correct this, but the rears are 9inch and the front are 8inch now the track width will be the same withe the dimma wheels (as it is measure centre to centre of the wheels) just unsure now on widths of the tyre to choose the car will be used for a few track days in the summer so do i go 225/40 allround or 215/40/16 front and 225/40/16 on the rear?? because surely to promot a balaced car or more leaning to oversteer you would have a wider wheel/tyre on the front (grip) ??? but dimmas come with wider tyres on the rear Edited December 22, 2009 by joe1joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
