Edge case. The streatch marks reduce the balloning. Wouldn't happen if the tire don't break loose.
the tire contract, the back end drops a few inches.Back to ecommodderland, If the weight is 50-50 I'd want smaller tires on the front to give some predictable oversteer.

Unfortuneatly, I went from 145/15 to 1665-50/15 and it exhibits snap oversteer. The Notchback had 145s and a 4-wheel algnment and it would do little pirrouttes with the throttle.

j-c-c -- Imagine trying to balance one of those monster tires, to that RPM.
