Wheel and Tire Performance Handbook by Richard Newton - Published by Motorbooks ISBN: 0760331448 RRP: £18.99

 

 

Apparently, enthusiasts buy more tyres and wheels then any other aftermarket accessory and this book is the first (that we know of) comprehensive source for wheel and tyre information.

 

Although geared towards the US market, the bulk of the information contained here is in an obvious universal language.

 

Whether you want to know how tyres and wheels work and how they affect vehicle performance, or whether you’re simply seeking advice on the subject, this book will supply the info you need.

 

It covers road, race, off-road and various other disciplines, and begins with a chapter on vehicle dynamics with explanations for centre of gravity, slip angle, pitch, yaw and roll, while author Newton provides more general information, from materials used to methods of construction as well as maintenance.

 

A real treat and an essential addition to your bookshelf.
