[urq] re-quattro-ing a quattro - ALSO

[Louis-Alain Richard]

Exactly, when I switch to Fuchs with studded winter from steelies with
unstudded winter, I can clearly feel the difference over the potholes. 

Now, if finding nice Fuchs is easy, finding high-grip 205-60VR15 is way
harder...

Optimizing the unsprung weight is also helpful in keeping the tire in
contact with the road surface.  With a heavier tire and wheel, it takes
longer for the suspension rebound to put the tire back onto the road.
That's why stiffer suspensions are popular; keeps suspension geometry the
same and tires in contact with the road.  Fine for racing, but bad for
fillings and road feel.
