Suspension and Tire Setup

06GTMustang89 · August 30th, 2009, 01:54 PM

Ok since the last time ive gone to the track ive added a lot of chassis and suspension...i.e. tubular k member and a arms, roush rear springs, QA1 rear shocks, and bmr LCA relocation brackets. So my question is...that since my rear is a lot stiffer and my front will be lighter for weight transfer will my M&H Racemasters be ok? I ask because since all the power will go to the wheels now and not the suspension the tire will need to be able to flex and compress more for traction. The M&H's are not a soft wall like the Mickey ET's are...should i just lower tire pressure to compensate or sell them and get ET streets?
