Better handling, better brakes, and better tyres (even the LRR variety) able to handle this improved performance have made a massive contribution to road safety.
Not just on small cars, but on all cars.
The average car driver is not able to exploit the extra margins that stickier rubber would allow, in order to manoeuvre out of a bad situation.
The most useful performance component of sticky tires is their improved braking ability.
