CAMARO6 - View Single Post - Tire size question: Stock fronts with 26" rear.

My suggestion would be to pull the 2 ABS fuses when you race it and just put up with the lights on the dash and the lack of power steering while you have the short rear tires on with the tall fronts.

I changed the tire revs/mile in the tune for the short tires before I even drove my car with 245/40-20 front tires and 275/40-17 rear tires. Only drove a short distance and the car did not want to go. The computer apparently got freaked out by the mismatch. By turning the nannies off (as much as you can anyway) with the ~10sec hold down of the TC button until the 'stabilitrack off' light is on in the tach, was able to drive the car. However while making a dragstrip run like this, the 'service stabilitrack' flashed on the dash and the log showed that a timing reduction occured. That's why I am suggesting to pull the fuses when you race it, to completely disable the stabilitrack.
