Tire size vs wheel width
Ran into this recently and wanted to post it because I know for handling situations a lot of people lean towards "What is the widest tire I can fit on my wheel?"
Here is a link to a tire-rack test:
Tire test Where they compared different width tires on various width wheels. I posted the main results below as pictures but all the subjective results are in the video.
I think the fact that the wider tires were slower in some situations has to do with the weight and power of the test car. So keep that in mind.
