I like this question, bc it applies to me too haha.

I too, have not really pushed my car to its limits, but I feel ya.

I have roughly 300 wtq and 360 whp with a GT2871R.

Run 17x9 245/40 17 Kumho Ecsta MX all around.

Car grips really well. Have coilovers, Tanabe Sways, all solid-joint aftermarket suspension links, etc

Long sweeping turns, the car feels pretty neutral, but at times, like the rear end would come out if I pushed it harder.


On short turns, for example, taking a tight offramp at like 30-40 mph, it always feels like it wants to oversteer if I get on it any harder.

I was considering maybe trying to go with a 9.5 or 10-inch wheel in back with 275s or so.....

I don't have enough REAL experience though to tell how the car handles at higher speeds.....but my gut tells me it may oversteer a bit.

This could be in part due to alignment, but I'm not running anything super crazy....normal camber settings and nearly 0 toe all around.....maybe I need some more toe in in the back?
