Which one?

Which car would be faster in the 1/4 mile?

A 99 Camaro SS with 275/40/17's all around or the same car with 245/50/16's all the way around? Thanks!

Re: Which one?

275- bigger contact patch
245- more available sidewall flex

The answer is most likely negligible.

This should have been posted in the "Wheels and Tires" forum... not on Advanced Tech.
