i like wider tires too, i'm just saying "work better" is subjective
(...and sometimes i'm just a jerk smartass)

Also a wider tire typically is a less fuel efficient tire. But I think he mentioned that in a later post. But for me, that is why I wouldn't change the size. Maximum fuel economy (that was in my budget) is why I got the Yaris, it just turned out that its a fairly awesome car on top of that.
