Or is this only on expensive tyres, not cheap ones[/quote] bingo.. its a quality of the tyre... you can easily mistake lower profile tyres for being *better* as generally the cheap as chips hard compound tyres dont come in the really low profiles. but if you put a hard compound non-sticky tyre in a 35 profile it will be comprable to the same tyre is a taller profile... but the biggest problem is the larger rim... more weight.. and more importantly.. more rotational mass..
