He said he would run 205s if the 165s didn't work.I've driven on 165s enough times to know I'd never do it on a regular basis. A buddy of mine had to swerve very suddenly in his fox hatch with big'n'littles and literally PEELED the tire off the rim.The biggest factors in maneuverability and braking are weight and contact patch. You just can't change physics. The less friction you have with the ground, the less energy (or in this case inertia) you're able to bleed off through the tires in a given period of time.Have lots of people driven with skinnies and had no problems? Yes. Lots of people have driven their whole lives without a seatbelt too. A few unlucky ones have been thrown through the windshield and killed.I prefer my seatbelt.</blockquote>
