    Unfortunately we like corners, in fact we love going fast round corners.


    In fact we have amuch more non-linear view to a lot of things... thats why we are European :hehe:

    Not relly, not unless you attempt a big stretch which none of those cars have and which is normaly reserved for show cars anyway. Tyres attauly work better when they are streched a bit. Stop them from 'rolling' under the rim when you corner hard. :)

    175/50/13s on 13x8s is about the optimum for looks and on 13x7s for performance. If you took 13x7 wheels into a tyre fitters they would try and fit 205s on them! now they are totaly ****ing stupid! :rolleyes:

    well my probe will do those fast enough.
    But for me, I like drag racing. But I wouldn't mind selling my probe ina while and getting a drifter to build up.
