Low profile tyres

Low profile tyres will generally improve the vehicles steering response, handling characteristics and appearance.

Tyre profiles have changed considerably in recent years because of changes in vehicle styling and demand for increased vehicle performance. Today's tyres have a squat appearance, rather than the tall, narrow look of yesteryear. The aspect ratio is a comparison of the tyre's section height with its section width (45 indicates the height is 45% of its width).
