[QUOTE="perryyip73, post: 463006, member: 19616"] I've been doing tyres business for some times, so far non setup is fixed. I will still always refer to my tyres catalog if neccessary. I can see some drivers having different heights compared to front and rear which effect the aerodynamic of the car when going above 100km/h. Each tyre size have different required wheel width, there is a calculation for each tyre install in a wheel. Based on the catalog, i had decided my setting which is 235 x 35 x 19 (8.5F) same height as 275 x 30 x 19 (9.5R). Imagine if ur front wheel is higher than rear, ur aerodynamic is run off and result in slower top speed, higher fc, stability and understeer problem. Front too low also will have oversteer due to when brake, ur weight will fully transfer to front instead of 60/40. lol my english is bad, im so sorry, hope u guys can understand what im trying to say. We living in Malaysia whereby our road condition is not good as Japan or German. At those country with gd condition road may not required better setting (staggered) to gain more grip or stability when driving. But here in M, i will suggest its better to improve our car stability, grip, etc. This bad road condition also resulted every car owners suffered by repairing bushing, absorbers, tyre life span and so on.
