[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 422615, member: 3592"] I read it a long time ago, so I can't remember exactly. I think it had something to do with different threads and compounds giving different grip levels under certain conditions/speeds. So if one axle has one grip level and the other has another grip level, it unbalances the handling. At normal speeds it shouldn't matter, but at 200kmh it's a bit of a gamble isn't it? A staggered setup with the same tyres on all 4 wheels wouldn't have the same issue. [/QUOTE]
