The link makes a number of statements which in my (somewhat educated) opinion are just flat wrong. For instance
Quote:
This type of tire construction makes the sidewall area of the casing very strong, which allows the tire to support more weight.

Now it seems obvious to me that the tire's sidewall isn't supporting the car's weight. That's being supported by the pressure of the air in the tire - otherwise, we'd never get flats :-)
