17" versus 14" tires

When I read your replies, it seems like you only beat the living shot out of your cars with wide open throttle hammerings. Then you assume everyone else has no control over there right foot.

Why do you want to “Overdrive” your front tires and front end?

Right?!

If you can overdrive your front tires, you need more front tire. The goal should be that the front tires can take everything you can give them and more, you’ll get a lot more performance like that.

Regardless, they don’t make anything in a DOT legal 235/60/14 that’s even half the performance of what’s readily available for a 17” or 18” rim nowadays.

Run whatever you want of course, but let’s not pretend that a 235/60/14 is as much performance as you can get out of one of these cars on the street. Not even close.
