Re: Different Tyre sizes front to back!

hahaha interesting!
I assume this will have an impact on how the car handles etc?
Are wheel / tyre sizes going to be calculated when working out customer demand?

Probably not, I can only think of 2 cars that have different tyre profiles front to back, the Chrysler crossfire and the honda beat :lol:

Re: Different Tyre sizes front to back!

Being able to select different width front and rear is a nice option, being able to have them easily the same would also be very useful. perhaps a match option that can be turned on or off depending on if one wants them to be different, or a single slider for total width that would adjust front and rear at the same time equally.

Re: Different Tyre sizes front to back!

Oh, ok, different sizes, no.


Different tyre profiles, yes, have a watch of the designing a car from start to finish video for an example of how that works
