You may have made you VDC more sensitive and the powersteering seems to be worked alot harder with the larger tires than one would think. Z Car Garage did not like what they found when they flushed my powersteering fluid. I run 245/45/17s. There is most likely more but I'll let others speak on the evils of the stagger set up on sedans. I love the look but didn't do it.

hum, i have weird situation then......wheels are staggered(f18x8 and r18x8.5), however, 245/45s tires are on all four coners.......that just doesn't sound right for some reason.

thinking of going 235/45s on the fronts cuz the 245/45s look so beefy.....
