I have felt a tendency to snap oversteer since I put Hankook EVO tires on the rear of my Boxster S. They are softer than the normal Michelin Pilots and have a greater tendency to get twitchy at higher speeds. It was very disconcerting the first time it happened. Neither Michelin Pilots or Yokohama S Drives we like that but the EVOs are quite twitchy.

I have read numerous articles about GT40s and their dislike of soft tires and tendency to snap oversteer. Since the Boxster is a mid engine car as well, it would follow that it would suffer the same problem
