After I changed my OEM tyres for Avon Storm ST's (after the stock tyres had done nearly 12k), I noticed the bike was loads quicker at turning in and gave lots more feedback. Admittedly I changed the springs in the front too, but the bike felt loads different with new rubber on.

Different weights on each side isn't a problem necessarily I don't believe, just means the balancing of the wheel has changed with the new rubber.
