Michelin tires for the upcoming 24 Hours of Le Mans show the extremes in tire
sizing.
For those who believe innovation is part of racing, check out this stack of tires. The top tire is the four inch wide Michelin front tire for the radical Nissan DeltaWing. In the center is the DeltaWing rear tire which is 12.5 inches wide. At the bottom is an Audi R18 front tire that is taller and measures over 14 inches wide.
The photo below shows the dramatic contrast in designs between the Audi R18 Ultra and the Nissan DeltaWing. Both are Michelin technical partner teams.
