     Gary,

     Saw your comment about Dunlops and them not really being "high 

     performance" tires. I tend to agree, but remember, there's all that 

     marketing hype:

     

     D60-A2s are "high performance"

     SP800 are "ULTRA high performance"

     

     :-)

     

     Seems like anything with an "H" rating or an aspect ratio of 60 or 

     less gets to be marketed as "high performance" these days.

     

     It's all in the definitions. Kinda like the Mitsubishi Eclipse 

     claiming in their radio ads to be "the best selling imported *sports 

     car* in America."
