It is like they are trying to put the biggest flywheels they can on every corner.
A great strategy for killing urban cycle mileage.Potholes eat small wheels like 13".I run 14" steel on my 95 civic.I don't think 13's would be a good choice on the roads here for my use.But I also notice when wheel shopping most choices are for 15" and up.Fewer choices in 14 for my car.So I will stick with the stock steel.
Some of the new cars have good drag numbers...but they come with expensive flywheels at each corner...arrrrggggghhhhh!
