Heavy steering on acceleration

[Hoti]

Hey,

I have noticed after i put on my new RE070s on that when i accelerate hard the steering becomes incredibly heavy and twitchy. My new tyre's profiles are 225, slightly bigger than normal however the rest of the measurements are identical and they are on OEM rims. I have Eibach coilovers and was thinking of getting FRSU, would this help, if not what do you recommend?

Thanks in advance,

Nige.

Anyone have any ideas?

yep, your tyres are the wrong size

Also bear in mind that the height of the sidewalls and therefore the rolling radius will also be different (not just the tyre width)

I'm also running RE070's on standard rims and haven't noticed any difference in the steering?

I have eibach springs and FRSU

Not much help I know but thought I would share :xhappy:

i just got 225 tires too, i have a set of tein monoflex and my suspension was also twitchy...i hardened the dampers and it's much better. I think a good alignment also helps. I'm gonna put a steering relocation bracket on and change the tie rods...it's also possible that there is play somewhere in the front that causes this twitchyness.

I am yet to have FRSU done so im hoping from what people are saying it will help. I have heard alot of people running RE070s with no problems with FRSU so im optimistic!
