How is Force Divided Among Car Tires?

[phymatter]

force by tires divided ?

suppose the mass of a car is m kg , the pressure in its tires is p Pa , so so balance the weight of the car the tires with contact area A will exert some force on the ground , will this force be = mg for all the tires , or will they divide the force among themselves , meaning that the force applied by each = mg/4 ??

Assuming all things equal, they will divide the mass equally between them.

Of course, engine placement and other factors will result in different forces through each tire.
