Tire Upgrade ?

[pickax]

As a retired bean counter, I can’t recall a single occasion when I decided what would be included / deleted from a product.

We engineers need bean counters to keep us in check ... but as an engineer I understand that car designers include features (e.g. front air dams, etc) that balance aerodynamic lift and holddown forces. And i thank God for that when passing between two semi trucks while doing 80 mph on a freeway.

Neither bean counters, engineers or designers make the ultimate decision. We each provide input based on our perspective / specialty and then an owner / chief executive decides.

I beg to differ.. at least for my POS 2015 Ford Transit.. don’t get me started.
