Driving Characteristics After Changes

[70rs]

Wider tire getting better traction could be pulling it to one side, but I would think only if the differential and suspension were moving around. Double check all of your mounting oints and suspension bushings. Try the camera deal and see what comes up.
At least that way you don't go buying new parts guessing at whats wrong.

What tires are on the new combo? Are they also R888s?

I agree - put the TT2s and original rubber back on and test first. Do that BEFORE any other adjustments.

Yeah, all R888's. Makes perfect sense. I've got a buddy coming up to help, hopefully he hasn't left his house yet and I can get him to pull his tires and wheels off of his car.

I'm heading down to the garage now. I'll see if I could find a spot to mount the GoPro.

Now you have me very curious what it could be. Please keep us posted on what you find out.

As the other guys said, try swapping the old tire & wheel package back on. That eliminates one possibility. Try the GoPro with both sets. Maybe you'll see a difference.

Good luck!

Just take one of the Watt's link bars off (don't even need to take off the other, but probably good so it doesn't get lodged somewhere). My bet is on Watt's influence rather than tire.

I'm waiting for my buddy to show up with his wheels. In the mean time, if you guys never saw my previous thread on the Fays 2 watts link install, here are some pics to give you an idea of what it looks like.

I also went through my GoPro stuff and I dont have a suction mount but am going to try and figure something out.

Are the lengths of your Watt's bars exactly the same? I would tend to agree with Mark that the watt's is likely to be creating the symptom you're describing. Although, that said, I would tend to agree with Mark on all things suspension related....

Yes, bars are equal length.

I strapped the Gopro underneath and got some vid but it doesn't say much about the watts. it is still uploading into photo bucket and I will post it later.

What I did though was take 2 clicks out of the shocks and when I stomped on it, it was fine. Could be because the tires might have been a bit cold so I will be trying it again but that will wait till tommorrow.

I'm thinking the posi is about ready to go because it seems I'm getting more passenger side wheel spin.

Next track day is in September so i think that will be the best time to get some watts footage.
