Hi guys
In order to reduce the understeer, I am considering to put 245/30/19 tires on my z435is. Do you guys think i will have rubbering issue ??? |

Only if your girlfriend makes you. Otherwise, no rubbering issue.

This guy in germany has a racing background and is performing alignment on the Zs with stunning feedback by his customers. Here is his take on tire dimensions on post #8, if anyone can read german it is very informative as his team has already dealt with practically every case of motor, suspension (normal, adaptive, kw3), rim size, antirollbars, lowering springs, tire type (rft, non rft) and plenty tire brands, all on our e89. http://www.zroadster.com/forum/index...fassung.83627/ The whole story behind his project: http://www.zroadster.com/forum/index...ahrwerk.82318/ |

Sad but true.
I recently mounted back my old rft for winter storage and (compared to contis sc3) I have to admit that I preferred the feel while cornering and on high speeds with the rft, it felt like there were poly bushes especially on the front axle. |

I can personally state that reducing rear camber does help significantly, I took 1 degree out of the rear settings and it is a huge difference, not to mention the improvement in rear tire wear.
