Do you think Germany would've been more successful on the Eastern and Western fronts if they had halted production of the Tiger and instead mass-produced Panthers?

The tanks were superior to American models. There only real fault lay in the fact that they lacked mobility and Hitler wouldn't let Rommel command, instead opting to micro-manage and completely ignore strategic advice from his council. So, they were misused by Hitler, and then pummeled by American artillery.
