Tire information

The first thing I'm going to start working on is the tire information tool. The things I would like the tool to be able to do is educate a user about grip levels for braking, handling and acceleration; calculate the optimal tire pressure based on the weight and tire information; display data about the tire including information about the tires load, maximum velocity and some form of tool for compensating for increased speed indication due to a larger than standard rim size.

A lot of information about tire codes and general information about good tire practice can be found here. There are a number of other websites that will be useful for getting ideas about graphing grip thresholds and other important information that will be presented to the user.
