Post Update 1.49 Suspension Compression Issues - Possible Glitch?

Different wheel size means different size of the tires sidewall means different cornering and compression.
Yes true, but do we even know if PD calculates such changes? A half inch change in sidewall depth shouldn't result in a car suddenly crashing under severe compression.
 
Switched my modded 964 back to stock suspension. Still has the issue, worse as ever.
I drove the stock 964 and while I didn't crash, it definitely yanked at the wheel in the fuchsrohre and pflanzgarten. It's bottoming out, either suspension or the tyre into the wheelwell. I'm not sure if the stock car bottoms out there or not when you're running those speeds in real life, so I really have nothing to compare.
 
I’m in disbelief how this issue persists two game updates later. Why does PD not address this with any urgency?

I keep finding cars that are completely broken on stock suspension. Today it was the Honda S800, and it may the worst offender I’ve driven so far. Hit an inside curb and the car will bounce through the corner for almost three seconds.

Thanks for reply. I feel like setting the suspension to be extremely stiff is a poor solution, especially given that the problem occurs mostly on tracks where you DON'T want a stiff suspension, lol.

Glad you found a "fix" but that's not really a fix. Stock vehicles should not behave that way, and given that they were not before update 1.49 that would indicate that PD ****ed up here. To which I ponder, does anyone know if PD is aware of this? They have to!

A youtuber figured out a solution. All he did was stiffen the springs by a third, raise ride and neuter the camber. So for camber he ended up running 1 in front and 1.5 in rear. On racing tyres

The thing is, it didn't have that problem before the physics update. I highly doubt the stock 964 Carrera RS bottoms out at the Nurburgring. This car is back when from they cared about their engineering reputation lol.

Sadly that is hardly a solution if you want to enjoy stock vehicles in the game. And race tires onto street cars? What you found is a bandaid for sure. Not ideal - still appreciate the info.
