this old thread made me wonder what the benefit is of staggered sizes front/rear,
What size tires for 16 x 8 Fuchs on a SC?
i.e. why 7&8 vs all 7s or all 8's? or 6&7 vs all 7s?, etc
- is it mostly a factor of 40/60 rear engine 911s, (or the SWBs 35/65 where tail-happy was a serious concern)
-
is it even relevant to more balanced cars
like 914's (46/54) (or 914-6 at 49/51 according to Hemmings ???) ?
- or maybe 50/50 Miatas?
this for grist: -
