Sorry, Will. The film makers said they had to progressively reduce the 
Charger's tire size and width until the thing was quite squirrely on those city 
streets, or it flat ran away from the Mustang. Take a look at the pitiful 
tire size during the sequence where the Charger's hubcaps fly off in a corner. 
They look like trailer tires. To me, thats de-tuning. Cheers- J Deryke
