Can't think of a good reason for so much. Any ideas?

Seems it's to reduce brake squeal and the loss of stability/efficiency that results. The reduce pad area is of little consequence as Amontons law states that friction force remains the same.

Was going to moan about spending money on wide tyres but.... 3.10

That took me back a bit, god I hated being a student!

The car doesn't "un-stop" when you take your foot of the brake. The accelerator makes the car "un-stop" or using the technical term go.martins wrote:

Stamp on the brake pedal, the car stops. Take your foot off the brake pedal the car un-stops....Unless you have a real old and dodgy S1 or a water bottle under the brake pedal. Simples.
Now we are getting somewhere. The above is far easier to understand than the man from MIT (Mind Induced Tedium).The car doesn't "un-stop" when you take your foot of the brake. The accelerator makes the car "un-stop" or using the technical term go.
