For anyone with wider than stock tires, are you experiencing any tramlining? It seems that the popluar front tires size is only marginally wider (255 vs 265 tread width), so I'm thinking that this isn't an issue, but I'm still wondering because I've had this issue on past cars and it would be nice to know if the Supra is susceptbile to tramlining with wider tires.

I run 275 fronts and have very little tramlining. I have a great alignment though which has a big impact. If you can find someone that truly knows how to setup a car you wont have very much with this platform at least in my experience.

I probably run the widest front tires out of most of you (315s) and have a pretty aggressive alignment. My car does tramline a bit but it's not bad. I honestly think it has more to do with the amount of camber I run over how wide the tires are.

I've experienced pretty bad tramlining with my supra since day one. At first I thought it was an alignment issue, so i got that done.. Still tramlines pretty hard. It's a 23
