Mid and rear-engine cars have a lot more weight over the rear tires to help with mechanical traction regardless.

And cars like vipers and forg gt's run a 13in wide rear wheel lol.

So its kinda like finding a happy medium of sticky, width, etc.....

Very true... Now I think of it... I had a great traction with PS2 when I had APS single turbo pushing 380WHP. But, when I upgraded to forged engine+aps TT pushing 550WHP, I spun those tires even in my 3rd gear... I also used Advan Neova tires (older version of the newer AD08), which is in the same class as RE11, for my time attack races, and was able to loose grip easily.
