Are you saying it'll contribute to understeer? | Certainly it'll contribute to under steer. The car is setup to promote under steer which is a lot safer than the back end spinning out especially for unexperienced drivers.
Imagine it as the car sliding completely sideways if the tyres give equal friction it's a guess which side of the car (front or back) will go forward. when you reduce the friction on the front it slides first. it's a lot easier to recover from understeer rather than oversteer. it's all obviously effected by weight distribution.
But on the track on very tight corners I know the 55 under steers a lot. in certain points on the track I feel the limit very easily. I'm talking complete 40mph hairpins.
