He's got the wrong size tyres on, just to let him know
Should be running 215/40/17 on a classic
Use to run 32/30 on my classic with 215/40/17

Surely this isnt correct ? As the distribution of power isnt 50-50

Run my classic with 215/40/17 at 33 front / 30 Rear on Toyo Proxe's .

Started both at 28 all around then spent the next month playing around and found the above settings perfect for my car
