But I think all modern tyres are low profile in the sense that they are less than 100% and I was thinking of 65% or 75% which are typical ratios these days.
I think the 65/75 range is normal, and is only a lower % because tyres of old were much narrower that normal tyres are today.
I've driven 2 cars with black rubber bands and neither was a souped up car. Far from it.
I've also been a passenger in a couple that were trying to give the impression of souped up, and all were horrible.
