Default Mixing tires on the RS??

Since there is no 245/35 or 255/35 Hoosier or other R-comp slick is available at R19 I was thinking about the 265/30 R19 non-N MSPC for the front. Any problem with mixing it with 325/30 R19 Hossier R6 for the rear??

I think the car has a tendency to understeer so I don't want to go down the smaller tread width like 235/35 R6.

Any suggestions??

- Don't do that

- the 235/35/19 R6 is as wide as the 265/30/19 - this is a FACT (don't look at the 'official' Hoosier stats - they are wrong)

- both the 235 and 265 are basically a 255/260 width tire

- the difference is the 265 is a taller tire

- the 235 315 combo works nicely
