So are smaller wheels with wider tires meant to have a full contact?wheel width has a huge impact on contact patch given a tire's width
skinny wheels with wide tires will roll the contact patch more than a wide wheel.
xr wheels are what 8" wide with a 315mm width tire. take that same tire a the same psi on a 9.5" wide wheel and you'll see a better contact patch and less tread bulge.
my point is it's not just about air pressure.
