Corner Ballance Question
I have 16 inch race tires and 17 inch everyday tires. What should be on the car when I get it corner balanced and the ride height adjusted? Does it make a big difference either way -
Thanks -- Tim |

Since the race setup is more important, use the race tires.

Tim:
I might be wrong, but corner balancing is a result of both sprung and unsprung wieght. If the wheel/tire combos do not weigh the same the corner balance will be different. FWIW I would balance the car for the track since driving on the road is conservative right
