BFGoodrich needs to HEAR US !!!

Push = understeer. You turn the steering wheel but the vehicle want to go straight or turn at a larger radius.

Loose = oversteer. The back end swings out in a turn. It more likely happens in snow, wet pavement, too much throttle, etc.
 
indeed go lock your fronts and try to turn, you lose traction in the front, and still have it in the rear, and the car won't want to turn.
 
So... has anybody tried using the fronts 235/50/18 on all four corners or the backs 255/55/18 (versus the stock) on all four corners? I am not that concerned with keeping the stock tire look as much as being able to rotate the frek'n tires to get better wear out of them.

I know that the computer will need to be calibrated...

I've put the backs on the fronts, but they're P245/55/18, and not P255's. I dunno about P255's on the front. If my memory serves me right, I think that MAC once stated that he tried the P255's on the front, and they rubbed the fenders a bit. BTW, I don't have traction control on my Marauder, so I'm not sure if the P245's beingput on the front would be an issue if your car does have traction control.
 
Thanks for info! I have an early model (6/2002) 300a without traction control as well. Did you have to recalibrate the speed'o? Any issues with ABS?
 
They're on the way (maybe)

Got this e mail from BFG today:

The 245/55ZR18 G-Force T/A KDWS is in production now and
tires are being shipped to Distribution Centers and to tire dealers.
We anticipate all backorders being caught in approximately
2 weeks. We apologize for the inconvenience.
