Hi buddy general plan is v54p rears and have sets of jap 44, 46 and 48 fronts.

The 44s are the softest out of the three fronts and tend to give the most steering but can give grip roll especially on a busy day.
The 46s are a happy medium.
The 48s lean towards understeer but give a very safe car to drive.

The fronts will need to be trued down alittle smaller than the rears with a chamfered edge so that they dont chunk and ruin the tyre.
It also gets rid of over aggressive turn in.

Hope this helps

Well we were at Ardent today testing and Nick was doing quite well and I seen he had smaller front tyres on than normal and his car was doing well so tried them out and Yep smaller than normal fronts worked well to day

Good tip Nick cheers I will have to get a few sets sorted

It's worth running some superglue around the outside walls of the fronts. This stops them from collapsing under intense cornering and gives a quicker corner speed as long as you don't start under steering too much.
