Currently using a cheap Goodyear GT3 tyre. 175/65/15. And been feeling bumpy when I'm travelling fast. Feeling like that tyre does not stick to the ground. Why is that so? Because my tyre is lousy?

I know suspension does play a role here. But I'm talking about tyre. What tyre should I upgrade to? PS3?

People often talk about soft/hard walls of the tyre? What does soft/hard walls of the tyre does?

Does my GT3 have soft or hard wall?


Do enlighten me with my 4 questions or more smile.gif

Firstly your tyre pressure shall not be too high. Secondly, are you using the performance absorber which is harder than normal?

sounds more like your tyre need to do balancing
