My car is a Fiat Punto, the factory size is 185/65/15, to get a bit better road holding I fitted 195/65/15, but it felt heavy on the car, my acceleration off the line, mid-range acceleration and pulling power on hills dropped. I want to sell the tires I bought and fit 195/55/15 instead, do you think the tire weight would drop noticeably?

1 repliesCould it be that it's not because of the tire's weight, but because the wider footprint means more contact with the road, and therefore more friction, making take-offs and acceleration harder?
