Now if you put Michellin Primacy tires on all three cars and ran the tests it would have been interesting  |
you dont need to speculate or make a hypothetical argument regarding the difference in tires. there was already an actual test in which changing tires yielded the least gains in the frs compared to the 1 series and mustang. there is zero need for speculation. you are also omitting the fact that they changed width, height, compount, and rims in that test so even in the data you are using to construct your hypothesis, doesnt provide much if any evidence.
