I feel as strongly about my wide tires as guys do about their MT. I have an AT. So... Whatever floats your boat... Or makes you happy with your car. This is what you should do. But then believing it makes your car better is subjective. Better for you, YES. For me, maybe not. I have made choices/compromises that make me happy. Also, EVERY decision is a compromise.

Form follows function, this is true. If I tracked my car, I would have made different choices/compromises. I understand that contact patch size, wheel weight, and lap time are 100% related.

I have done every mod to my car with my hands. (except mount ballance tires, but only a few of us have a tire machine) It has been 5 years 10 months now of learning and wrenching. Which has made me very happy.





(Oh no! Don't start that again!!! AT vs MT)
