Pre Face-Lift 440 + Face-Lift 440

Right, going well! Got all the leather in, door cards switched over etc etc interior looking real sweet! Front seats are a little rickety, but I can sort that out soon enough. Took a whole day!

As the alloy wheels only had decent tyres on the back, I wanted to stick them on the front of mine, then swap my rear tyres for the other alloys. I put the rear alloy wheels from the new, on to the front of mine. This caused many problems with my handling! Steering became REAL light (I would've thought so ..steel / alloy), but also whenever I floored it, the car would veer to the right! And then when I came off acceleration, it veered back to the left...Don't know why this has happened.
Switched the wheels back, and all is back to normal.

Is it because there is alloy on front, and steel on back? The tread on the alloys were good. Going to sort out decent tyre for all alloys this weekend, and put them all on.
