It was all in an effort to save money, and thus over time it was just fully adopted into the American culture.

      Jacob Baker get ready to have to buy another set in a year. Michelin’s are better but softer compound and what most people don’t know is they start at around 9/32s where as Pirelli control contact is a harder compound(less tire is lost to the pavement) and start at 11/32s. Just a tip man. Also I’m sure those 265s look so much fatter than the 215 oem or whatever

    Even though steel rims aren't as popular, I've found them to be MUCH easier to balance compared to most other rim types. Mainly because a lot of steel rims require clamp weights in which you would just measure and let the tire balancer tell you on which side the weight needs to go on. Sticky weights are fairly reliable too but there are so many different types of rims that chances are, if the rim isn't brand new or clean, those sticky weights are useless.

    One other thing about Offset is it's also about making sure the center line of the wheel lines up with the pivot point of your steering, doesn't matter on the back as much, but if it's too far in or out your wheel will move in an arc to turn instead of twisting on the spot

Treadware 340, traction a, temperate a with a speed rating of 91W 168mph. Put them on my 2013 civic Si a few months ago and they are absolutely amazing for the price too, great in the rain as well even though they are a high performance summer tire. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a GREAT high performance tire. Got mine for 90$ a piece for a 215/45R17 but I think they have gone up in price since the word has gotten out about how good they are because they are a fairly new production of tire.

    Best consumer-friendly vid on car tires so far, short of telling how the rubber is actually made.
    7:12 This manufacturing date in this number code set is the most important: tire rubber has a maximum useful lifespan of 7yrs; even vulcanized rubber dries out to become brittle in that time period and not replacing them just invites catastrophic blowouts on the road.

    The best explanation of the stamped data on the tires I have run across. It’s quite q bit of information which you should know, I’m guessing, if you intend to drive or expect performance beyond the daily commute.

    the wheel spins the same amount of RPMs regardless of the diameter, but larger tires will travel a further distance for that RPM and smaller diameter tires won't travel as far, hence your speedometer being off.
