As TireRack puts it, "A wide, low profile or large tire has to "plow" a wide path through snow which causes more resistance. The narrower the tire, the easier you can get through snow. " Last edited by SailDesign; 02-23-2009 at 06:54 PM. |

Tall and narrow = dig and drive. Google winter rally racing. Looks goofy but it's all about the grip.
