Torque steer?

[type one]

i disagree with re010 being an "excellent" tyre... above average (better than a falken ziex) BUT definitely not excellent...

[tofu R]

for a "stock tyre"
its excellent
but dun jack the thread .. open another

torque steer?? are you sure?
i have an open diff (vti-r) and i don't get torque steer... a bit of axle tramp, wheelspin etc... but the car never tries to change lanes on it's own.

maybe you mean understeer?

LOL!

i have an open diff'd B20VTEC and i dont get Torque steer - well only when the wheel alignment is out or i am on very worn tyres...

there lies your answer

Yeh the steering turns the other way sharply..... I've also noticed it happens when the road surface is a little bit bumpy.

got the exactly the same prob in my g2... tyre place said my camber was out of wack from lowering.. and could only be fixed with a camber kit...

car is all over the place on bumps.. bit hard to control

Thanks for the feed back guys. I'll change my tyres soon and see if that solves it.

dont forget the front and rear wheel alignment too
