I was surprised by that because the Sport Package equipped both of our test cars with 19 - inch wheels and lower - series run - flat tires.

Today, When I was driving over a hump, I didn't control the steering wheel well so that the right front tire went first then followed by the left front tire, and at that moment, the TPMS light was on.

Encouraged by a slightly nose - heavy weight distribution, not - so - well - educated electronics, and a playful variable - rate diff lock, this BMW is notorious for its loose rear end even when fitted with optional nineteen - inch wheels and tires.

It rides on 20 - inch wheels and Pirelli PZero Nero tires, and comes standard with the largest front brakes that the SRT division has ever offered: 15.4 - inch Brembo rotors gripped by six - piston front calipers.

Of course, mechanical grip is aided by a rear - biased weight distribution (54 % of the F12's weight is on the rear axle), a five - link rear axle (the 599 used wishbones) and enormous Michelin Pilot Supersport tires (315 / 35s at the rear, 255 / 35s at front, all on twenty - inch wheels.)

The premium package (power seats and a bunch of minor items) was a whopping $ 3300; the six - speed automatic was $ 1275; the sport package (seats, steering wheel with shift paddles, eighteen - inch wheels, performance tires, and Shadowline trim) added another $ 1100; additional items (heated seats, iPod adapter, HD radio, satellite radio, and rear parking aid, among others) pushed the price up by $ 2895 more.

For the Sonic RS, Chevrolet has stiffened the suspension, lowered the ride height by 10 millimeters, and carried over the same P205 / 50R17 all - season tires from the LTZ, although they are now wrapped around sportier - looking 17 - inch, five - spoke, gunmetal - grey alloy wheels.

The aggressive silhouette was enhanced by my test car's optional 20 - inch anthracite forged - alloy wheels and 255/30 summer - performance tires, part of the $ 1,750 Black Optic package.

The ride on this surface, which has become corrugated by studded tires ripping into it, is undoubtedly firm, but there's more fluency in the damping, a greater sense of the wheels tracing the undulations neatly and with easy control.

Customization isn't frowned on in the truck world, which means you can upgrade to bigger and better wheels and tires, for instance, without being sneered at by collectors.

It lowers the car by 0.4 inch, and adds Adaptive M suspension, Variable Sport Steering, M Sport Brakes, and 18 - inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.

These can be negatively affected by having different tires in front and back, but for your Elantra which is front wheel drive, you can replace them in pairs.

If you want to get it sideways, you can by flicking the wheel under trailing throttle or by flat - footing the throttle and waiting for the engine's output to finally overwhelm the tires.

Those claims are backed by the use of STI - tuned Sachs dampers and coil springs front and rear, the addition of flexible V - braces to the engine compartment, new draw stiffeners in the chassis and subframe that improve steering response, lightweight 18 - inch wheels (a BRZ first), Brembo brakes at all four corners, and, perhaps most importantly, Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires sized 215 / 40R18 — a significant upgrade from the regular Michelin Primacy HPs and the very summer tires I was hoping for in my first drive of the 2017 BRZ Limited Performance Pack.

New 22 - inch wheels are fitted with upgraded tires, and the Mansory Ghost is lowered by around 2 inches for a lower center of gravity.

It's reasonable to jump to the conclusion that the Speciale is the latest and most exotic entry in a long line of wings - and - things, wheels - and - tires upgrades created by cynical automakers to goose profits.

To begin with, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 has larger wheels, 19 - by - 10 inches at the front and 20 - by - 12 inches at the rear, a measure that requires flaring the front fenders by 2.2 inches and the rear fenders by 3.2 inches to clear the bigger tires.

Winter tires are required by law on all cars in Quebec from mid-December until mid-March, and swapping into a Charger and a 200C equipped with all - season tires demonstrates the limits of all - wheel drive.

Our count of items parked / left / abandoned on the road: wheelbarrows (three), metal trash cans (many), a sleeping dog (one, which we let lie), large trucks (three), a tied - up donkey (one), a mound of drying grain (one, surrounded by cinder blocks), motorbikes and bicycles (innumerable), and a tire with wheel and axle attached (one).

The Honda Factory Performance package adds unique 19 - inch alloy wheels with summer tires, a stiffer suspension that lowers the car by 0.6 inch, a trunk spoiler, a front lip, a rear lip, and side skirts, red interior ambient lighting, HFP badges, and special red HFP floor mats.

The 911 Carrera S also donates larger front brake discs (13.4 inches in diameter) straddled by fire - red calipers and twenty - inch wheels shod with slightly wider tires.

The rolling stock, which consists of 19 - inch wheels and high - performance tires, looks a little small in the Silverado's massive wheel wells, especially by SEMA standards.

Approaching this low and improbably tiny throwback, you can't help marveling at the prewar appearance of its form, highlighted by an exposed engine located way out front, ahead of two skinny nineteen - inch wire wheels shod with Avon tires and sheathed with cycle fenders.

Cars for the U.S. — don't expect to see the TT RS on sale here until next spring — will all come with 20 - by -9-inch wheels sporting 255/30 Pirelli P Zero tires front and rear.

Affected only by the speed of the pavement passing beneath the tires, the effort behind every movement of the steering wheel rises and falls as your pace falls and rises.

But as more engine torque is called upon by the driver, the Haldex's electronic brain does the math by registering axle loads, tire slip and steering angle, then commands the fast - acting electro - hydraulic center differential to continuously vary torque distribution to enhance rear traction with a torque split that is biased to the rear wheels by as much as 100 percent.

Since the BRZ can accommodate a complete set of wheels and tires inside its cabin, we'll be able to run R - compound tires on the track and extend the life of our street tires by only using them on the street.

Later, the car got a subtle restyling by Shinoda and Arkus - Duntov commissioned a 377 - cu - in V - 8 to be installed, along with a revised Rochester fuel injection system and wider wheels and tires.

Because the Mazda routes all that power (and a half - shaft - tweaking 280 lb - ft of torque) through the front wheels only, its off - the - line acceleration times are limited by tire traction, not engine muscle.

We've enjoyed the traction provided by our Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3 tires this winter and never had to park the 400 - hp, rear - wheel - drive sedan due to weather conditions.

This has proven to be a common problem with the 350Z, one caused by the soft rubber in the stock Bridgestone Potenza RE040 tires and by a chassis that is hypersensitive to wheel misalignment.
