Anyone have any data for tires used only in streets?
tires will stay relatively square

try looking at the wheel axially, not from the front or rear of the vehicle, this is where there is significant difference in tire shape

times change, tires change from bias ply to radial, STOP listening to the dinosaurs who can't adapt to technology

try to think more like a scientist and not like old wives telling tails
