Super Sport on front and PS4 on rear

Fast.F10 · 11-12-2020, 09:36 AM

The time has come for new rear tires for some odd reason

, fronts still have good life on them. Is it ok (no weird ill effects: noise or other) to run SS in front and PS4 in the rear? Sticking with the OEM spec but also want to add on some spacers down the road; assuming 5mm in the front and 10mm in the rear will be proper?

Sorry, tire noob; much thanks

Off a track I can't imagine it being of any concern. Probably push you a bit more into understeer by way of the rear getting more grip than what you're replacing, but can't imagine that being noticeable on the road (at least not in a bad way).

I remember reading that at least some folks had bad experiences with the 10mm spacers specifically and there were suggestions to go lower or higher. Personally I'm considering 12s all around.
