| I would be very wary about tyre swopping. I once did this on a Pug 205 1.9 GTi, putting some good treads on the front thinking it would help traction/cornering etc. It did, but at the expense of the rear. The upshot was a very scary pirouette on a roundabout -nothing damaged car wise but the drivers seat acquired brown stains.
Now I admit the balance of the mini is streets ahead of the dear old Pug but the principle still remains & I doubt whether any electronic gadgetry would have got me out of that mess.
