TLDR: If I went to 245/35r18 (or 255) tires all around for track days, what effect would that have on handling?
I had a very fun and rewarding track day with all my track focused improvements done (new PB's are always exciting), one of which was the Cup2 tires (235/40r19 front and 265/35r19 rear).
I tracked the wear and tear and found that the fronts wore 1.27mm left & 1.15mm right, while the rears didn't wear at all.
I get the feeling the front OEM tires are undersized for hard braking and cornering, so if I widen those, I might as well meet in the middle with the rears for a square setup. At this rate the rears will probably age out before they wear out, but going to a square 245 or 255 setup would let me rotate the tire's any which way and even out the tread wear.
Was also considering dropping to 18" rims to reduce unsprung mass. Any input would help before I go finding out the hard way

So the other day I was driving home from work and the battery charging system dash light would flash on for a quick half second a couple times but not a steady flash it was at random intervals. I had a new battery installed last year, the alternator is putting out 14 volts and when the engine isn't running im getting 12.7 volts. Ran the battery through a tester and tested good. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem before I really start digging into it as it does it very randomly still. Thanks for the help guys!

The window on the driver side started doing this almost one year ago, so I went to the dealer and they replaced the whole window lift assembly except the motor. The problem was still there, so they replaced the rubber channel, which still didn't fix the issue. They are now thinking to replace the motor...
A couple of weeks ago the same problem started on the passenger side and today all windows present the same issue.
The problem is not related to the window button/command, it happens also when using the key fob.
Is this happening to anyone else? Any idea what the problem is and how to fix it?
Thanks!

Hi everyone,
I recently got a 19' GT1 AWD, and I have the BMS 450WHP kit, and a TiAL BOV, with the BMS adapter and I was wondering if this looks good for a 1/4-mile run. I have been reading into the expected boost levels and was wondering if these logs look alright or not. Any help is greatly appreciated.
