Tyres Is there any kind of tyre that will stop the slipping on full lock?

Many people talking shit about this and simply don't have knowledge.

Most modern cars have high ET values on the wheels therefore, very low negativ offset steering.

With that steered wheels nearly won't move in an angle of the geometry, they will move more right on the spot when they get steered.

Combine this behavior with high negative castor, it is very easy to scrub tires sideways because from beginning the tires aren't plane to the tarmac.

Cold, damp, wet conditions will promote this behavior. And of course a lot of tires aren't that loud or sturdy while this happens.

It comes not from a torsen/helical lsd.
Sure a plate controlled lsd is an other story!


Why do high grip tires do it often, because the positive profil blocks are bigger and less flexible, before they'll flex they scrub on these circumstances.

Less negative offset, less negative camber, less toe-in, smaller and higher profil blocks as on sunday driver, winter and all-season tires will reduce or eliminate it.

Hey! I was just posting to ask if there was any kind of tyre i could put on the front to stop that awful tyre skipping when on full/near full lock? and will it have any negative effect on performance? and one last question, does the tyre skipping get worse as the tyre wears?

thanks in advance
Definitely Michelin PS5 or 4S if you have a wider wheel like 225.
