Re Canards.......ducks.......agreed they are for downforce and used in racing. pressure applied to the front wheel drive equals drag as the tires are stuck to the track like crazy glue.................ecomodding? pressure equals increased tire friction and you are looking at 5 to 15 percent fuel reduction due to tire deformation, heat, sound etc............for racing and not ecomodding. Once again another area to open to discussion, surely the pro's and con's will flow as freely as wine.
