After 36 years driving my Ruby with 4.50 tyres I bought some 4.00 section tyres and put them on the front; the handling was transformed and I wondered why I had not done it sooner. Also having renewed all tyres on our vintage Riley Nine the handling went to pot. By swapping front and back tyres to give matched tread patterns on the fronts the problem was solved. My opinion is that correct size and suitable tread pattern both contribute to good (better?) handling.
