with a 16/19 conversion, all you're doing is getting rid of that overdrive problem the mtx-3 has. by installing the 16/19 conversion, you're fixing the ratio of the car. this translates to almost even wear of tires front and rear and makes the car handle even better and even more consistent.
with a car that is setup to race, we almost every time have a 26mm front and 30mm rear. we cant rotate tires and put the 30mm in the front to even out wear. and in a long main, with a stock ratio, we cut the front tires down about 2mm to 4mm to compensate and get that consistent feel of the car. but with the conversion, it fixes the problem.

I hate to ask this now, what is the who conversion about? What is being converted ... thanks!
