My question is, how does 17f-18r or 18f-19r stagger affect handling? I would imagine that contact patches would be similar in size, but rolling circumference is no longer equal. How does this change balance? I guess the increased thermal capacity in the rear would mean better stick for longer track sessions, so would that make the front understeer in general? Anyone know how this is tuned in exotics that have different F/R sizes?
