Oh the bittersweet irony.... Tbh even if it does make you take curbs slightly better this will not affect racing, just the hot-lappers.

The difference between highend and off-road or tuner wheels is not slight. I challenge you to try it. Its massively helpful. Perfect example is the right hand turn after the LSGP chicane. The bump we go over coming out of that turn isnt a bump with the proper tires. You stay glued to the earth. Smooth as a babys arse.

You shouldnt base everything around a youtube video even if it was broughys. He has admitted they make a difference now.

I'm still not sure I believe they make a difference.Anyway even if they do I'll still just put the rims I like on even if they're at a slight disadvantage.

There are seriously lines that are not possible without them. They go over curbs like they are not there at all.

I cant confirm anything else bc I have no proof but i THINK it has some other effects too. Just not sure what or how they effect the car.

Hi Trowa, So what is the current thinking in regard to the "hierarchy" of tire performance? Can you list best to worst?

Hi Trowa, So what is the current thinking in regard to the "hierarchy" of tire performance? Can you list best to worst? My opinion is that Off-Road>Tuner>Sport/LowRider>Highend>Muscle After tuner its a major drop off tho. I use tuner as it doesnt look hideous and seems to have a similar effect with curbs, although off-road is definitely better.
