Advan RS on Dunlop Starspec
Hi All,
I recently changed my rims to a staggered set of advan RS (Very nice rims btw in gun metal black) front 7.5 offset 50 and rear 8.5 offset 50 ordered direct from Japan, I wrapped them up in Dunlop starspecs 215 front and 245 at the back. Had a long drive back home so took it easy when driving.
After a small break in period i started driving the car a little harder maybe 4-5/10, now i started to notice some bumpsteer in the rear, like a rolling feeling, the rear bumpsteer is very noticeable. I never had this issue before I changed my rims and tires but now its getting more and more annoying and worries me cause the car doesn't feel stable in cornering and makes me slightly nervous to push it.
Anyone able to advise me on this? is this normal? how come I never felt this before on my previous set up. Previously rim set up was staggered 17 inch offset 45, tire size 215 front and 235 rear (due to rubbing had to go with a smaller size).
My suspension is BC Racing, the setting is at the middle both front and back. I also changed my bushings to PU, powerflex.
Appreciate some advise on this.
Thanks

they do, but the idea is to try and reduce it, i know the car is prone to bumpsteer but just like some input from others what could be the cause of this. Because before i changed my rims and tires i did not even notice much bumpsteer.
