Has anyone ever experimented with how the top of the tire’s dimension gets narrower with low air pressure (5-10psi)?
When airing down, the contact patch/foot print is increased. This would change the width at the top of the tire as well making it narrower. I would assume this change in dimension could be 1/2” to maybe as large as 1” with vehicle weight on the tire. This is of course a guess and would vary based on wheel and tire size.
Anyone have any knowledge or measured this before?
