One nice thing about this particular discussion is that the topic at hand CAN be tested with some degree of reliability. You take the same car, same test track, same driver, and 3 sets of tires in 3 widths (if you want to be really thorough)... run the track at low/med/high pressures and observe vehicle behavior at turns.

Not something I have the resources to do in my back yard... but we here on this type of forum ARE the audience of motoring, learning, debunking, and building shows. My mom doesn't care about this topic and also doesn't watch those shows, so her demographic isn't one those type of shows need to worry about - we are.

So.... anyone involved in one of those shows want an idea for a segment? Anyone know any good email addresses of people on such shows?
