Rear body roll
Just curious what other people think of the handling and in particular whether the rear has a bit too much roll with quick direction changes?
I am running standard pressures on PS2s (will change to PSS soon), but just wondered if others thought the same and what they had done about it? BTW, this is fast A and B road driving and not the track. Thanks |

I took my SG car in for an MOT recently and one of the rear springs had sheared, a common problem apparently. Just a thought??
edit: DOH, just realised it's in the 1M section. Ignore me :-( Last edited by jupe777; 06-09-2016 at 01:02 PM. Reason: being stupid |

It'll be your geometry set up..
Get a decent corner weight and geo set up done with more rear toe and and more camber up front than the oem set up. I also find michelin tyres dont suit the lbft or short wheel base of the 1M- cups are great on the csl as are pss and pilot sports. ive tried all those tyres on my 1M and csl (some times back to back). I find 255 35 19 up front and 275 30 19 at the rear are a better size. I'm currently running federal evo's for track and summer use at 28psi (on road) They are awful in the wet but better than the Michellins in the dry ( cheaper too) and they last longer. I run 255 35 19 and 295 30 19 on winter tyres for when the temps drop. Hope that helps. still find it tail happy tho- as can be seen here https://www.instagram.com/p/BKBYJX8hWpB/ cheers Jamie |

Thanks for your replies.
I will get the geo checked in the next few weeks and see what it is. |
