Tires and sidewall height
What will make a car have faster accerleration. A car with 245-60-15 or a tire with the size 245 50 15, what will help the acceleration a car with a taller tire 28" tall or a tire with 26" tall?
the shorter tire will give you a better effective gear ration, resulting in more torque to the ground... but... the taller sidewall tire will provide more grip because you can get a bigger contact patch with lower tire pressure.

245-50s will provide better acceleration. The 50 means the sidewalls are 50% of the tread width or 122.5 mm. Where as the 60s are 147mm tall.
