I prefer a car that oversteers than a car that understeers.

I`m no engineer or expert, and I`m sure Porsche engineers designed the car to understeer for a reason, but you would be surprised how much of a difference a 225 tire makes at the front vs a 205 on these cars. I can take turns a lot faster with a 225 vs a 205 without trail braking. I like fast in fast out
Even my Cayman had understeer, and a lot more than the Boxster, and changing the front tires from 235 to 245 made a HUGE difference.
Hmmm, I'm surprised it makes a big difference. Good thing for me my local Firestone was busy until next week. I'll switch it to a 225 50 17 instead
