What if the front tyres get beigger than rear tires... how will that affect the car handling?
How do you tweak a link car?
Cheers
Ive heard that many like t-bar cars on asphalt, but it depends on your driving style. I prefer link, and most people do these days. Also lipo fits much easier in them, than t-bar cars.

i would personally NEVER run bigger tires on the front than the rear on asphalt. you want a really bid rear tire on low traction asphalt, so when you go around a corner there is more side bite and flex from the tire, therefore giving you more rear grip. if you run bigger front tires, i would say that the car would be very oversteery and have limited rear traction. I have never done it so idm not sure.
