    Matra, the Vette doesn't get driven in the rain and it DOES drive like it is on rails! I know what you mean about rolling resistance but in america with our big V8's and power plants of all sorts it is not a real issue to us. Also I would not see any real problem in running wide tires up front as long as they didn't cause oversteer problems and the scrub radius is kept to a minimal amount.

    Thanks V8, that's what I said
