Thank you for that example. Turn to page three "coefficient of friction". It says (although in a rather long winded and high brow way) rubber tyres do have more friction the wider they are. I thank you :D
 
A wider cheap tyre isn't better than a narrower good tyre. The difference between the 225 and 235/245/255 isn't worth worrying about on a Z4. Zonda yes, Z4, no.

I already said I stand corrected over that.
But I never said a rubbish wider tyre would be better than a good thin tyre.I just said a wider tyre will have more grip than a thinner tyre. And some people said it doesn't. And somebody who was trying to prove that put up some link which in fact said a wider tyre does have more friction than a thinner tyre
thus proving my point. I thank you :D
