Running the square tire setup (8.5" wheels and 255 tires on all four corners).

Improves the handling immensely.

Safety note: Increasing the front tire width from 205 (or 225) to 255 causes the handling to transition from the stock understeer condition to an oversteer condition. Front and rear adjustable sway bars are needed to bring the handling back to a neutral balance. Don't try this mod without the adj sway bars and some knowledgeable help in setting them up.
