New Delhi : Engineers and designers have had to up their game to cope with the demands of people for faster and more powerful cars while bringing resolutions to the challenges that arise alongside. An example of such is in the modern design of supercars. These cars have come to reach the highest speeds ever in history.

Perhaps one of the major innovations is the introduction of wider tires for a better balance of cars through curves and bends at high speeds.

Manufacturers have solved the challenge of balance at such speeds by introducing new car parts, such as spoilers, which work with air to keep cars glued to the ground. They have also ensured to create body designs that are ever so streamlined for easy passage through the air.

Well, these are 10 such cars with the widest tires from the factory.
