You notice the Vette/Viper have decreased their stagger and increased front width lately. These old muscle cars are nose heavy and they want to push. You'll find yourself continually looking for an increase in front grip while you own the car. You'll naturally have more lateral rear grip at your disposal which means you will be decreasing rear grip to get chassis balance. I'd say a smaller rear tire would net better side and forward bite due to a slightly more desirable spring rate/shock setting.

Don't get me wrong, I think you can get the car to handle nicely.

Couldn't agree more.
