Interesting. So how did they go about tires being different size? Ribs in the road should respond differently to different tires...

Well, first of all, the correction to the subject has made all of humor above obsolete. Bummer.

I'm not quite clear what you mean by this question. Most concrete highways have ribbing or grooving of some kind, and other than some noise issues for certain combinations, the vast variety of grooving and spacing on tires have no ill effects.

This is also in an era of tires with a 1-inch contact path traveling at around 30 miles an hour.
