yeah, he has that huge contact patch, but doesn't let it contact, it lowers the surface area of contacting area, putting more pressure per square inch on the surface area of the rubber thereby increasing the forces of lateral friction under movement, thereby rapidly decreasing the tread life. also, the performance probably goes DOWN with such little rubber actually hitting the road. Toe in adds gripp because the outside wheel in a turn will stretch outward and the outer sidewall side will lift off of the ground, a toe in, however has the tire leaning inward, so that when the rubber makes its way to the outside, it's actually fully flat on the ground, rather than "peeling up" on the corners. Caber only adds the negative opposite effect of toe in.Originally Posted by A.P. Photography
