of course it will mess with your handling..
your car is designed for a certain turn in (understeer or oversteer) and when you put larger tires on the back, it makes the rear tires grip more because the surface area has increased, and friction has increased. when you turn in with the stock tires on a 240, the back can hang out (pretty easily), which is called oversteer and is one of the blessings that the 240 has to its fine handling. when you turn in with stock fronts and wider rear tires, the back tires wont slide, and the fronts will be the first to break loose, which is called under steer. I personally car with any type of handling prowess to have more than a little but of understeer on initial turnin.
