I wish someone would speak to my issue which is one of
width vs tire diameter.
The case that I'm looking at involves shrinking the tread width (and approximately the contact patch) by about 14 percent.
I understand that this has completely separate implications (usually bad) for traction, handling, stopping distances, etc., but I am focusing on the fuel economy benefits alone here.
