  1. I'm pretty sure it's an MOT fail to have different tread patterns on the same axle, am I right?

     

    Click this link and then tyres & roadwheels.

     

    It says...Tyres must be correctly matched with regard to: * type * size * structure. Type to me is the tread pattern?

     

    as far as i believe type refers to crossply or radial

  2. that RS is indeed lush :D

     

    my first thought when looking at the surrounding area was that it looked a bit "fieldish" ...i bet that brings in some trade, but how do they get them away without getting dirty again :D

     

    good idea to invite people and demonstrate who products work, quite often we think we are doing things right, but when shown how to do it properly we realise we are doing it all wrong

  3. in an effort to reduce understeer on the starlet i was advised to fit a rear ARB

    many reports state that its one of the best handling mods to carry out

     

    so duly ordered and fitted a rear ARB, not one to do things by half i also ordered an uprated front ARB, until then it was running a not so uprated front ARB

     

    the difference was....no difference to be honest

    and still suffering from understeer

    this is contrary from many good reports on how much better it should have been

     

    so my thoughts are maybe that by uprating the front ARB it counteracted uprating the rear

    next thoughts were by fitting the not so uprated front ARB back to see what differences it might make

     

     

    question time:

    Is there a relationship between front and rear ARB's and understeer/oversteer ?

    Is it feasible that one counteracted the other ?
