Overcoming traction problems on YRV Turbo
We have a Yrv Turbo and have the usual problems with wheel spin when pulling out of corners. What do you recommend? If we put 17inch alloys on could we get away without grinding the arches? Have you noticed any difference in the accelaration now that you have 17's?

yrv traction (or lack of........!)
Hello
I have had the same problems with mine, (hasn,t everybody?) my yrv was useless at taking a corner at anything other than pedesrian speeds, i have taken mine ontrack and understeer was evil! }:), but i have just fitted 195/50 15 Yoko's to mine and oh my word what a differnce,it grips instead of understeering and the ride is also better over bumps too The brakes is a other weak area, but the sirion rally 2&4 front pads (they are apparently ferodo fast road pads)fit and make a big difference to the feel.this is my next little 'mod'
hope this helps
Now- 05 chrade 1.0 SL (my folks's)
Then- 04 yrv turbo / 98 coure + / 06 sirion 1.0 SE / 58 sirion 'se' sport the list grows . . . . .
2 things you can do that help
2 things you can do that helps.
1. lower your YRV with the Eibach springs (from your local Daihatsu Agent)
2. install Whiteline swaybars for rear (if you want it could also be a bigger one for front).
Have installed booth, very good handling, no more "bouncing" ride in corners.
