Only the rear two were low, when the fronts need changing I will

To do this I would need major oversteer right? Surely having harder compounds on the rears will create more oversteer than having the harder of the two types on the front (current setup), which would cause more understeer relitively?

Sorry got this bit the wrong way round!

not sure you have got it the wrong way round m8.
if the harder compound (p6000) are on the front and the rear has the grippier compound (toyos) then it will understeer

I have Goodyear Eagles on my car at the moment in 17"s They are wearing pretty quick though especially on the left hand side

Front right is more or less still only scrubbed in

Probably try SP 9000s next as the goodyears are good but not amazing either (Hyped up a good bit)
The great thing about the Eagles however is they are very progressive and you know exactly when they are about to let go.
