I'm sure most of you have seen this but for the rest:

As far as I'm concerned there is almost no torque steer with the original setup. I've gone to a +53, 19" wheel with a 255 tire and I've introduced a bit more with this setup. Still very manageable but noticeable. With the cold weather tires (A/S) on, the cars handling has also changed, but the was to be expected with less grip. It's still fun but now its more like having a big go-cart.

I keep punching my car over the past few days and I guess I just can't feel anything that feels super ''I had to correct it aggressively" that I associate with torque steer. Just pulls straight as an arrow and goes where I point it.
