Hi frank, how did you do that test? Considering you said the contact patch was rounder, i'm thinking you jacked up the car and put paint on the tire then put it down on a sheet of paper or something, so when you lifted the car again, you could see the result. Am i close??
What did you find in relation to the contact patch up to sidewall pressure? Was there much of a decrease in size?
