Rather unconventional use of the phrase ‘torque steer’, I know….

But the car ‘veers’ to the left during hard acceleration.
I’m suspecting the diff is tightening under high torque conditions and the larger diameter wheel is causing that side of the car to be slightly faster.
Hence my phrase ‘Torque Steer’

The diff should look after the difference but there’s probably a limit to everything.
I’ve expereienced tramlining before and its not that.
I’ll get the wheel with the new tyre swapped with a front at the weekend and try again.
