[QUOTE="CPRsm, post: 10443188, member: 81705"] Ehhhh, he's kinda of right. Static friction or no, a wider tire does help. Now the percentage you increase the width, is not equal to amount you will pick up. Not even close actually. those guys also run at GOOD tracks, with boost controllers. Also run wings for down force, and the big one, Back halved cars. When you have all the right components to go in a straight line, the tire can definitely be smaller. Tell some of those guys to take their boost controllers, wings and 4 links out and see how they run on 275's. If "smaller was always better" under any circumstance, they would run 225's. I think the guys running 275 wouldn't mind a larger tire either. [/QUOTE]
