Message	But it really takes more than just tires, you have to adjust the suspension balance to get rid of the Z's tendency to push. Tires with better traction will give you more lateral g's, but you can put the same tires on a smaller lighter car as well. Do what you will (and I have done a lot), you are never going to out handle my brothers 1900 lb Lotus Elan. Out run him on the straights maybe (but with a 170 hp four banger he will give you a good race).
