    Hello there, sorry about mi bad english.

    Actually my Maverick have a 235/60/r14 on front, but the direcction its so hard to move, i hear about changing tires can be better for direction, maybe change to a 215/60/r14, to get the direction smotth, and change the front tires to back, what do you thing about that? :tiphat:

    Try increasing the air pressure in the tires first.

    Inflate them to the max PSi printed on the tire's sidewalls.
