This presumes that you fit rft's obviously, for me the roads i drive on then rft whilst more of a compromise is useful as most roads i do day to day are single carriageway A roads and the odd bit of the m20...
I think its because they are wider and roll over some potholes or dont really allow the tire to go down in it because of the width.
