I got new tires for the rear today. 285's. I had 265's in the rear which i now moved to the front. I couldnt feel any difference in the steering but my dad drove my car and he said the steering wheel felt a little stiff, and overtime, this could damage the steering system. Is that true or can I mess anything up by having such big tires in the front? And how critical is it to get your wheels aligned after getting new tires. (I have 2 diff threads). By the way I get soo much better traction with the new tires.

 

You will be fine with the 265's in the front. Lots of people run that size with no problems at all.

 

do you have 9's all the way around? I got 245 up front and 275's round back, 9's up front, 10 out back... I got AMazing handling...
