Does /o/ like thicc sidewalls?

>>15359299
Excellent profile.
Excellent car desu.

Side exhausts make me hard.

Pretty sure it's worse for performance. If the sidewall flexes the geometry changes and the contact patch shrinks.

Big wheel, wide tire, and thin sidewall is best. Although you want the tire nearly as wide as it is tall

>thin sidewalls not being more prone to flex due to having less material to cope with the force

>>15359428

Lower profile sidewalks tend to be more firm.

>>15359458
if you are talking about performance tires, yes, but if you are talking about the one on tyrones donk, then not at all

>>15359428
> less material to cope with flex
Less lever action and naturally stiffer

>knows more than the race team that built the car
didn't know we had world class engineers in here

>>15359487
> world class
> builds a fwd prototype race car

>>15359505
yes world class. they didn't take the easy way out like those ford niggers

>>15359428
You're an idiot.
>>15359417
The opposite is true. Since taller sidewalls flex and conform better, they help keep the tread planted. Shorter sidewalls are better for steering response in theory though.

>I've never seen a wheel with thin sidewall debeding on a harsh turn

its ok anon

>>15359643
What? How does that have anything to do with anything?
Did you link the wrong post?

>thin sidewall debeding on a harsh turn because they're more prone to flex due to having less material to cope with the force
Someone flunked their physics exam.

GG making all that stuff up retard

>tire has bigger sidewall
>more flex so the tire doesn't debead

>tire has a smaller sidewall
>less flex so the tire debeads

"b-but if you have a super hard racing tire wall compound on the thin one and a shitty econobox tire wall compound on the other one it doesn't happen"

>satirical comparisons of apples to oranges disproves your theory
Good job straw man.
>>15360758
You obviously didn't read the rest of the conversation, retard. I literally took quotes made from the other poster here >>15359643 and here >>15359428

>>15359417
Wait
Big wheels are better for performance ?

this is true.

it's why formula 1 cars, with their giant sidewalls are the slowest cars in the world around corners.

Thankfully your stanced corolla with 2cm high profile is there to show them how it's really done.

>>15360963
kill yourself.
F1 cars depend heavily on their spoilers to keep their tires glued to the ground.
no speed > no air over spoilers > no grip

no

looks like shit

like everything "thicc"

>implying that's because of big sidewalls
>not because of low weight feat. massive power
Why wouldn't they put on low sidewalls?
Tires used to flex massively, yes they still do to some degree.
But it isn't /that much/ of a deal.
