Funny that this thread is comparing DRWs to drag cars now. :)
Any way, the effect of air pressure on traction depends on a lot of factors. More contact patch can lead to more float and less traction or more traction depending on if the road is dry or not and the material surface, and of course, tread compound. In any case, I don’t think anyone probably thinks DRWs have good traction in rear either way.
Also, if the harder front tire has less sidewall flex, the harder rear tire (with more air) will as well.
As noted, I have 19.5s, so I’m not going to be airing down much past 70 in any case. I’d prefer my beads to stay in place. ;)
DRW traction...why wouldn't a DRW have good traction?
