I know that doesn't mean much in general, but I'm not a great driver, and I'm running with traction control off. No significant under or oversteer. Also, my car is full bolt on stage 2....
Anyway, I just wanted to voice my endorsement for a square setup for those who are not sure which way to go. I love it, and prefer it to my street staggered setup.
The wheels are apex 18x10 and tires are 275/35 Bridgestones.

That's awesome that you found a good square setup that works for you. Definitely a lot of positives to being square. Mind sharing what offset the wheels are & any spacers if needed? Also what suspension are you running & camber? Thanks!

Yeah definitely both fun. Little more nimble with square - but a little stagger still can still rotate pretty well too. I like the feel of 20mm stagger - 275/295 - at the track. Good turn in, very grippy, and can put the power down pretty well. Both definitely have their benefits.
