Turning radius different between CL-S & CL-P

Followed the link in the wallpaper post http://acura.jbcarpages.com/CL/2002/index3.php

It list the turning radius for the S at 19.7' and P is 18.7'. What are the differences in the suspensions that affect the turning radius?

Tire size is one diference. You can also put tire cables on a P and not an S.

yeah basically its the rim + tire size. cl-p has 16s right? or just a diff 17? if its a 16 then thats the reason why its not as wide either.

it think it more to do with the thicker arms and beefier suspension.

When I test drove the 02 CL-S I decided not to buy it because I couldn't deal with the turning radius.
Then a few months later I test drove the 03 CL-S (auto) and the turning radius was a hell of a lot better.

Is there a diff between 02 and 03 CL-S suspension then? It can't be the tires/wheels cuz they're the same size!
