oyester, have u had any problem with the DSC? due to the wider tyres on the rear? how does it drive? Ever had any problems with the staggered set up??

(sorry bout the questions but i think timtam is a bit worried about the above)

there is no problem at all with the DSC because i have the wheels aligned and spooring. it actually makes the car grip on the ground more firmer

I *think* the upshot of that issue was that the DSC light went on (not sure if DSC 'kicked in') when worn 225/45s were fitted on the front with new 245s on the rear. Fitting new tyres all around at the same time appears to solve the problem.

Also, you may notice the understeer, especially in the wet, on the road as oyester's set up is effectively 3 sizes larger. Of course it will not be a problem if you drive..er....sanely in those conditions. TT...you are sort of setting yourself up a bit like Sqz's previous ride
