You've changed units on me wink I was using wide and narrow, and you switched to thick and thin.

Again, I'm with you, but I'm not sure how this disproves the authors in my second post of the thread.

Also, generally speaking, is the area of the contact patch the same, given the same tire construction and air pressure.

Or perhaps a better question is how much of the cars mass does the sidewall and the air support, by percentage?

I don't expect you to have the answer to that. Perhaps our member who works for Yokohama can answer that one.

Thanks,

TB
