What are the differences between wide tires and narrow tires?

[MacAdam]

Each has its advantages. Tires: In 1895, with the advent of automobiles, pneumatic tires saw widespread development. The first car tire samples appeared in France in 1895, consisting of single-tube tires made of plain canvas, which had tread rubber but no patterns. Advantages of wide tires: Increased grip, improved vehicle dynamic performance and handling. Advantages of narrow tires: Lighter acceleration, relatively lower fuel consumption, and reduced tire noise. Different vehicle applications: Wide tires are typically used in mid-to-high-end models, while narrow tires are more commonly found in standard vehicles. Different rim compatibility: Wide tires are mounted on larger rims, while narrow tires are generally fitted on smaller rims. Different sidewall heights: Narrow tires are taller and thicker, while wide tires are relatively thinner.
