When i first got my Supra TT, it had V V cheap brand new rear tyres on it from the importer. It was my first ever rear wheel drive car and a bit of a step up from my previous car (citroen c2 vts), quite simply it was almost a death trap in the wet, back end all over the place.
Very first thing i did was get some new rubber and wheels, made a world of difference to my confidence in the car. It still catches me out on ocasions, but normally thats cos im toeing it when i probably shouldnt be......
The only words of advice the importer gave me was "oh yeh.....and watch that back end" as i drove off the forecourt. It always shocks me how these people can live with themselves, sending such a powerful car out on VV cheap rubber that hes deliberately chosen, knowing im an noobie to RWD.
grr
