TyCreek - exactly the ratios I was referencing.

Using Chance's examples:

Typical 24-ft Sprinter on 170-inch wheelbase:

24 X 190/170 = 26.8 feet
24x12=288
170/288=59.7%

Challenger 38-ft on 252-inch wheelbase:

38 X 190/252 = 28.7 feet
38x12=456
252/456=55.2%

Ford 20-foot Class B on 138-inch wheelbase:

20 X 190/138 = 27.5 feet
20x12=240
138x240 = 57.5%

As I said in my earlier post, there are many factors that will affect handling beyond ratios but easier to correct tire size, inflations and weight distribution (IMO).
