Hello everyone,
So, I've bought a 2016 GT, and come next spring, I want to upgrade the suspension on it.
I've got a set up imagined for it, but I'm not sure if it's any good for what I need from it;
I want for the suspension to be able to work in the Massachusetts winter with 235/50 R18 Bridgeston Blizzak WS80 tires, and then have improved cornering ability and handling using 255/35R19 tires on a 19x9 wheel at the front (might possibly go for 275/35R19 tires on a 19x9.5 wheel, but not likely) and 305/30R19 tires on a 19x11 wheel at the rear, most likely with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S being the tire.
Comfort isn't hugely important, but I would prefer for the ride to remain practical for daily use on Massachusetts roads.
Here's the set up;
Thanks in advance!
