I just thought the reference might help clarify some concepts if there was still some confusion. Unfortunately, a rolling tire is harder to understand, so it might not help. | |

| Mar 20, 2020 at 15:27 | comment | added | mmesser314 | Here is a similar question, but for a car driving in a circle. physics.stackexchange.com/q/495120/37364 This is a little more complex. A key fact is the bottom of rolling tire has speed $0$, the same as the road. Friction from the road is important for steering the car in the same way that friction is important for walking. | |
