So I'm curious the smaller the aspect ratio the less overall tread you get with the tire right? I cant seem to find any info regarding this. But looking at my ladys car she has 55's and I have 40's It looks like her tread is much much deeper then mine. Just curious if anyone can clear this up.

well if you have for example. 205/55/16. 205 is the width of the tire. 55 is how tall the tire is. 16 is rim size. are you compairing the same brand tire? the tread depth should be the same. each tire has diff depth depending on compound the tire is made of. also depend on if the tire is all season, dry, wet etc. dont know if this help
