Never have understood that. When you go to track tires like Hoosiers they start measuring them is 10's and 12's and stuff instead of the standard metric stuff. The non-metric sizes never made any sense to me.
Remember when I bought my first set of tires for my Satellite. I wanted 50's on the back and 70's on the front so bad and my Dad made me by the stock sizes for it. Couldn't even get raised white letters in the stock sizes. He was smarter than I was because the way the suspension was set up you could floor it from a stop and instead of spinning the tires it would break a motor mount with the stock tires on it. Only time I could get it to spin the rear tires was wet or snow and ice.
Had a friend tell me one time if I spun the rear tires it would tear up the motor and transmission. Told him it did that without spinning the tires. He had a Vette my Satellite would beat.
