When I called NTW to try to get D60A2s they attempted to sell me SP8000, 
claiming that they were newer, better and based on the same sizes and 
construction.  I don't expect that tire *salesmen* really know all that 
much about detail tire specifications, but does anyone here have a good feel 
about the differences?  (The Dunlop web page shows a difference in 
dimensions for the two in a 195/55-14 size, and even shows it fitting on 
different width rims!)
