Tyre Psi, Oversteer.

[Arr0nUK]

Im lowered on KTec Coilys which are all working fine (Dampers ext). I currently have toyo t1r's fitted which are brand new, but im finding im getting quite a bit of oversteer when pushing it.

Would lowering the Psi tyre pressure in the rear help sort this? or is it the over way round?

Thanks

Are the coilovers adjustable? Maybe the rears are set too stiff. Modifying your driving style is much more likely the better option unless your tyre pressures are really far out from what they should be

What psi are you running on the back atm?

When I got new tyres on the clio they pumped them up loads (front). Let out a tiny tiny amount using my brothers tyre pressure gauge and it stopped them sliding about quite a bit! was well impressed.

Worth a shot isn't it, you can always pump em up again

I run 29 on the rear as i never really have anything in the back.

when you say a lot of oversteer, do you really mean a lot, or just that the back feels a bit loose? Personal preference, but i like the back to be trying to break away a bit, rather than understeer

The fact they're brand new tyres won't be helping much either. Put a few miles on them and they should come good, my Toyos were a bit like this to begin with, but they're MUCH better with a few miles on them.

new tyres will always feel s**t till the scrub in

I can only adjust ride hight not the dampers/shocks

Its low but not as low as most coilyed clio's ive seen.

No the back end comes right out and it never used to, in some ways as you said its better, as before it understeered now it over steers.
