One of the best tire comparisons I've seen. Next you should test different wheel sizes, such as: 255/45R17 255/40R18 255/35R19 255/30R20

What I think would be most interesting is a non-square comparison. I'd wager 225 fronts on 9" and 245 rears on 9" would would outperform all tested here.

@@tirerack while this is consistent with my experience on race tracks and im not surprised with the results. Whats poorly explained is your "control tire". For people who arent as experienced in this, the control tire doesnt make sense. WHAT is your control tire?? OEM Factory Tire???? RE71RS in specific tire size and wheel combination ??? What is the baseline you are comparing to ? I cannot figure it out. Anything above the 100% is faster and under is slower.. sure... faster than WHAT? OEM Tires???? The other thing you dont take into consideration nor explain is tire pressures. What tire pressures were you running. These all affect the results.While this is a great and informative video and consistent with my track experience... it could have been better explained for the beginners

@LearningFast Год назад

@@robbyjai honestly, this video seems to be geared to beginners more than anything. Yes, absolutely you have valid points about tire pressures and other things affecting the performance. However, explaining those things takes a lot of time. The video already was 16 minutes long. It is hard to hold someone’s attention on RU-vid for longer than that. I assume that @Tire Rack is going to have other videos with different variables they test like tire pressure or tire profile but you can’t cram too much into a single video or people simply won’t watch it. This video seemed to have just the right amount of content without being too long. I think their “control” test was more of a benchmark than a true “control group”. A “control group” should isolate and “control” the variable that you are trying to test. They actually vary multiple variables(tire width, wheel width, and tire profile) in this test so they can’t really have a single “control group”. However, I think they ran enough test cases to have a legitimate conclusion. Certainly it could be explained better but not in 16 minutes. That would probably make the video 20 or 25 minutes and you lose so many viewers by that point. Even 16 minutes is hard to keep people’s attention on RU-vid. I bet very few people read my entire comment because it is too long.

@mark-kf3md Год назад

Three points: 1) In my experience if you are after the best performance it's best to take the section width and divide by 25.4. This is the width wheel you should run. Example: 255 / 25.4 = 10. 245/25.4-= 9.65. This has been proven to be true by many racers. Had you run the 245 on a 10 or at least a 9.5 it would have been the fastest. ** The best outcome in your test was the 225 on a 9. Guess what 225 / 25.4 = 8.86 2) The side wall stiffness of the tire will make a significant difference in the results. For your nest test run on different width wheels two different tires of same size but one with a softer side wall and one stiffer. The tire with the softer side wall will perform significantly worse when the tire is not vertical or stretched a bit. 3) The weight of the car makes a difference especially in the wet. It is sometimes pointed out that in some racing classes they will run for instance a 9 in tire on a 7" wheel. If you look at the class rules you will see that the max wheel width allowed is 7". They are using it because they must.

@tirerack Год назад

@ouch1011 Год назад

Appreciate the info but you could have substantially simplified your post by just saying to run the same wheel width as the tire section width. 25.4mm = 1 inch.

@smanzoli Год назад

in short, convert from mm to inches and go 😅

@NothingXemnas Год назад

@@smanzoli It makes no difference. He already posted it in milimiters, and the tire width is measured in milimiters anyway (which they did to fit into metric). On the other hand, someone who uses imperial would need to convert the tire width to inches so that now tire measurements fit imperial. It isn't easier to "just convert to inches"; it is the exact same thing both ways, turning metric factory spec into imperial to fit YOUR American system, or turning imperial units to metric to fit your American methods to OUR metric standards.

@shoersa Год назад

The weight of each different tire/wheel combination would be good to list. I have always thought that a narrow tire on a narrow wheel would be lighter than a bigger setup and if it doesn't loose traction might be faster in straight line acceleration.

@mikebower9255 Год назад

You might notice there is no acceleration measurement in this test. For, say, a Miata @ Road America, a lighter tire wheel combo may yield a better laptime than a tire package with more lateral grip. It would need to be a situation where there are a whole lot of straights, with minimal cornering bias, like Road America, or maybe Road Atlanta. Lime Rock maybe. Something like that.

@tirerack Год назад

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.

@ArchOfficial Год назад

Given the same compound, and assuming the car is grip limited, wider wheel and tire (in proportion) will accelerate faster. You could get some gains when not grip limited with less rotating inertia, but it's not exactly going to blow your socks off. The % changes are big but the absolute inertia is always very low.

@ArchOfficial Год назад

@@mikebower9255 It will never yield a better laptime unless the car has so little power it can't reach a high enough speed to be on the limit in the corners, or the track has no corners.

@mikebower9255 Год назад

@@ArchOfficial what part of Miata @ Road America makes you think we disagree? I always run the widest tires I can put on anything, but a heavier wheel ass'y will cost you in braking, a wider tire will slightly affect top speed, it's like more downforce, almost always good, unless the track is mostly high speed oriented, like the ones I mentioned

@midnighteightsix6919 Год назад

I suspect tire pressure would play a part in the overall competitiveness of each combo, plus the ambient and track temps across the various test days. They don't say what the 'control' pressure was, but maybe the 245/9" combo needed more/less pressure to gain a greater edge over the 225/9". Very interesting video nonetheless, thank you Tire Rack!

@thatslegit Год назад

same here, 20psi on a 225 is very different for a 245 which would get sloppy and drag the sidewall around

@Peter-ff1tp Год назад

I haven’t even watched the video yet and can tell you that a 225 on a 9” will always be faster than the 245 on 9”. This is common knowledge in the Miata realm. (The most raced car in North America, if you want to know anything about racing you start there) The fastest Miata guys run 205 on 8”, 225 on 9”, and 245 on 10”. Edit- these are generally 15” diameter wheels.

@skvltdmedia Год назад

@@Peter-ff1tp So coning the wall a little helps kill it's play/flex? That makes some sense.

@Peter-ff1tp Год назад

@@skvltdmedia Yup. Same phenomenon the testers in this video experienced. It’s all about supporting the tire with a proper amount of wheel. The general idea is a 1:1 ratio of wheel width to tire tread width. For example, a 205 tire has a roughly(manufacturers vary)8” tread width, so you put it on an 8” wide wheel. These cars with their 17-18” wheels have an advantage over the Miata guys in tire choice. Earlier Miata’s generally run 14-15” wheels and tires are only available in the widths listed in my previous comment. The bigger tires for modern sports cars tend to be offered in more sizes so you can balance the car to your liking with the “in between” sizes like 215 and 235.

@FragEightyfive Год назад

This does a pretty good job of showing the difference, and acknowledging varying track conditions, one thing to keep in mind is the weight of larger wheels and larger tires, that can be seen in the larger tires on the wider wheels. It would have been neat to see this on 16 inches since there are usually more tire choices available on 16s, but 17s are probably optimal for this vehicle, having owned one and driving on both 16s and 17s. Sidewall stiffness comes into play with wheel with support. Note: 1:33 I understand what you mean by tank slapper, but this isn’t a motorcycle, and unless you’re familiar with motorcycles, you’re not gonna know what that means

Rears were limited to 13" diameter wheels by regulation in about 1973, while fronts were limited to 13" diameter by regulation in about 1983.

I'm wondering if the 245 isn't just too much friction for the power of the stock GR86 ? Maybe they're just scrubbing too much / add extra rolling resistance that negates the additional grip provided, while traction was already more than enough on narrower tyres ? Anyway, this shows a good car is about general balance of its components and I think that's the key here.

What a lot of people forget when shoving the widest tire they can get on their car is, you’re also increasing the rolling resistance with big tires. You also can easily run into a situation where the tires never reach optimal temperature for the vehicle. There’s even an aerodynamic drag component with wide tires. Years ago the fastest car in NASA ST2 at Road Atlanta was an FFR running 245 Hoosier A’s. Talking to the team they found the 275’s were significantly slower in lap times. They also tried R comps but they never got enough heat because the car was so light. I have no idea if that theory still holds true today but you can absolutely have “too much tire” just as easily as you can have “too much wing”. Great test! Thanks for all the data. I learned something about rain tires I didn’t know before.

This is a really very good reference but just a reference within 215/225/245 on 7-9j rims, but can’t agreed all What we are talking about how to optimise lateral vehicle dynamics by ideal rim dimensions. The target of optimal tyre performance on target rim width should have to find out the relationship between sidewall stiffness, contact patch vs rim width. There are some unknown factors may affect the result : 1) driving ability 2) tyre type (uhp, semi slick, slick) 3) profile difference of 40/45 on wet as slip angles highly affect the control on wet 4) test track is tight which is good for narrow tyres 5) wet surface is good for narrow tyres as you can see rally car use very narrow tyres on ice 6) no proportional increase of rim width to the 245/40/17 test to know the affect of stretch setup on 245 7) the wear and drop of performance after test laps 8) the affect of offset and tyre width to scrub radius That’s why there are no best setup on track and need to work very hard to find the most suitable setup for your own

Glad they're running these tests in wet conditions. Hope they extend the test to the snow. From the perspective of everyday driving, safety under wet conditions along with predictability is a strong argument for tire width moderation - along with a properly matched wheel. Final variation - larger wheel sizes in the rears - along with impacts on wear.

This was THE perfect video for what I was looking for. I have a square set of 18/8.5's on the way for my BMW and I'm trying to figure out the right tire setup.

@micahgunnell Год назад

Great video! I love these data-based comparisons. Thanks for doing this detailed analysis! It would be interesting to see the differences(if any) on AWD and FWD vehicles.

really nice video, been running 225 rt660s on 8s on my first gen BRZ and I really like it, was looking at changing sizes but I think I'll stick with what I have for a little longer!

So here the 225 on the 8" is the best combination for a road car. Thanks for doing this. I know google looked at my search query last night in order to feed this to me but I'm glad they did. I literally was just looking this up.

The stock wheels on the 1st gen Venza comes with 245s on 7.5” rims. But I understand why they do this. Forgiving when you accidentally bump the curb. Thanks for posting. This was very informative!

@JCYoo Год назад

As a NC Miata driver, the wheel and tire selection is very relevant to me. Thanks for sharing this video. It was eye-opening.

@tirerack Год назад

Thank you for your support!

@that3ggt Год назад

I loved this video, its exactly the wheels size I have and the factory comparison so it's very interesting to see the relationship with tire size and wheel width.
