I've only been driving my car a week, but i've a few sideways moments. Most self inflicted but a couple were big suprises, big fast suprises. I've got 315 35 17 rears by BF Goodridge. Apparently they may have been made in poland and could be the reason for my grip problem. Anybody have an opinion?

I ran that size tyre on the rear and my tyres were also very hard compared to the normal F1's but it was still quite controlable on the road. However if the back stepped out on track it was very difficult to catch.

if I remember correctly I ran between 18 and 22psi in the rear.

IMHO I have never held BFGoodridge as good allround tyres, I had the Radial T/A and the Comp T/A on the back of my GT40. I changed them for Goodyear GSD's and the wet and dry weather handling was like night and day in comparison. So would surgest a change of tyre........
