I am looking for a tyre recommendation for my FC sedan, stock wheels. Currently i have fitted 185/70R13 Maxxis and I find that the steering is unmanagably heavy at low/parking speed. I am running 35psi and even that pressure doesn't help. What is your experience? thanks Fraze.

Narrowest and tallest radials you cam get are the go for stock cars on my opinion. Have you had an alignment? Your front suspension may have a lot of caster set. This makes for great highway tracking but heavy low speed manoeuvring.

Steering box got plenty of lube, Fraze??
Thanks guys. Yes the camber and caster are set within spec. and the steering box is full of 90 wt oil. My tyres are just too grippy! Fraze
I've been using Mickey Thompson tires (http://4wheelonline.com/Mickey_Thompson_Tires.1724) for a year and a half now, and I find it easy to handle in terms of maneuvering and it has good braking performance.
You could bump the pressure up to 38PSI. Mine runs fine at that.
Cheers
