Choosing the right tire can sometimes be a headache. You have to select the right tire for the road, weather conditions, and your driving style, and you also have to be prudent with its size.

Tread width is a crucial aspect in the context of tire size because it is one of those factors that determine the contact patch with the road, traction, and tire fuel efficiency.
