Re: tire size question.

[John Erickson <hombre@elp.rr.com>]

OK, personal experience only.  H-rated tires are OK for all season tires, 
but not much else.  The difference when you move up to a V or a Z in a 
summer tire is well worth the money.  They are very sticky and usually 
provide exceptional traction in rain as well.

Remember that wear ratings can only be used to compare tires manufactured 
by the same company.   they may or may not mean anything across brands.

ATS Cups are on my Santa's list as well, but it may be next year before 
Santa can get them in the sleigh.
