    Smaller tyre walls on 45's, so better handling. Less tyre 'roll' when cornering

    Not much tyre roll in it though, you'd have to be driving at 8/8ths all the time to notice. Just buy 'expensive' 195 50s rather than budget 195 45s as the price will be similar (around 35 quid for toyo/pirelli 50s)

    well, it is better for tyre roll but not non existant, as i found out in my old gte shell when i tracked on my f1's, notice the 'rim protector' line lmfao, and yes the tyres had plenty of pressure in them
