And subsequently the "wear-down-ratio" front vs rear is more like we want it to be. Maybe some extra front tyre additive tuning is needed.

The biggest "problem" I have found with the WGT wheels, is the fronts wear out twice as fast as the rears on asphault, and its pretty hard to get the car to a racable ride height with stock wheels. I have always had to cut them down to prevent traction rolling.
