    more left will loosen entry in most cases.
    Im 155lbs and find myself at about 54% left on a 2300lb car, that comes out to about 52.7ish with no driver i think, i havent scaled without driver weight in a long time

    53% w/o driver should be close . More than what you have should help , if you are off the gas on entry.

    If you have 2's on the left and go to 3's , yes it will gain left % , how much , not sure . Moving weight left is only way to gain left.

    Space out the RH tires or suck in your LH tires to gain LS weight. If you have long wheel studs might be a good tuning thing with wheel spacers and not have to worry about different wheels and tire sizes.

    I'm sure every car is a little different but on my modified going from a 3" to a 4" RR changed my LS 0.4-0.5% we messed around with spacers and about every 1/4" was worth 0.1%.
