yea check the bushings, the DTSS could have deteriorated and locked, giving a permanant toe-out in the back

No he/she doesn't. Stop giving mis-information to people. If you want to risk your life or worse someone else's that's your progrative. Those tires are way past the wear bars. Just because you can see tread doesn't mean teh rubber is any good, the rubber isn't consistent all the way through the depth of the tread.



To me it looks like there is an alignment problem or your toe bushings died and your toe in setting is wandering around.

If you run high pressure in negative cambered low profile tires, you reduce the footprint.

That will also make the rear real loose.



I run 25-27 PSI in the 225/50-16 rears, and about 30 PSI in the fronts.

learn to drive like an old lady and you'll never have the rear end kick out. I recomend Bridestone, very dependable lasting tires.

yup bridgstones are a great tire, i wish my re910s were still good, they were a great rain tire.

[quote name='Torch101' date='Jul 12 2005, 12:15 AM']My rear end always kicks out....even taking a turn at 15-25 mph! It's very scary...I thought fc's were meant for grip. What am I doing wrong? Am I adding to much gas as I take the turn? Also my tires are very very bald...I did the penny test to check tread and it tells me my tires are illegal and dangerous...

Do you live in Hazzard County? In other words, are the roads you're driving on paved?



I suppose really old, hard rubber could be the problem. Definitely time to treat yourself to a new set of tires.

Yeah, they don't look that bad to me either. Not sure I'd be running 70 in the rain with 'em, but I wouldn't be afraid to run 'em in good weather.

I don't really see how you can ask a question like that...if you go around a sharp turn you can make the rear come out depending on how much power your car has, and if you have bald tires it's easier. It all depends on how you have the car set up for "grip" or for "drifting". But tires make a huge difference. I'd recommend the yokohama avs es 100s for street, they are cheap and get pretty sticky. For the track I just ordered some toyo proxes ra1, they are amazing in my book.
