changing the front to non std impacts the feel of the steering and potentially the safety and stability of the car

the intersection of the steering axis on the road is meant to be the centre of the tyre - that way a fat overly wide wheel isn't steering the car over bumps

why does anyone sensible want silly crack my wheel diameter and even worse fat tyres stopping the thing going around corners - Americans have a big issues with self image - its dysfunctional and actually irrelevant - drive it not look at it
