Re: Contact Area and its Relation to Friction?

So if width doesnt mean squat quick question. in st louis us (1625) had to face 217 and 148 at times 217 had 6 wheel drive with im guessing 1inch wide tires and 148 had 6 wheel drive with 2 inch wide ifi traction wheels. both with what i believe to be identical tread. yet we could push 217 easily and 148 we tied head on. we had a 3 speed 4 wheel swerve drive with 1.75" wheels covered in lower cof blue nitrile roughtop from mcmaster. any explanation? my next years plans already inclue 2.5"wide wheels at the moment
