Sticky this mofo!!! I have an frs and I just bought some 17x8 xxr 527 wheels(19.1lbs) and went with a 245/40/17 94xL(23lbs)michelin pilot super sports all the way around. I also just installed the subaru camber crash bolt. The car rides much better which was a surprise to me, I was expecting a firmer ride. As for performance, the car feels much better during turn-in and holding mid corner but it does feel like the car kinda snaps loose now instead of a controlled slide. Its not a huge difference, its still a controlled slide, just a little harder to figure out when those rears will break loose. Any ideas why? I also need to lower the car a bit but want to keep that little oversteer. What kind of springs,spring rates, and drop am I looking for to keep the stock suspension characteristics with these new wheels and tires on my car?
