I don't have a prob with the H rating, the treadwear
# is pretty high, ("hardish", maybe), but there must
be other cheaper alts to $4 bills per tire.

Otoh, if all the car is used for is driving on the flats
of Houston, at freeway speeds, they might be worth a look.

You're good with me motorD, I understood your initial post as you intended. It actually made me chuckle a little.

Actually I did some more searching and was mistaken on that H rating, they are actually V rated which is what my toyos are.

And Houston speedway . . . I mean freeway driving is mainly where they will see action. Still considering . . . the 2 posts above this one that said they had and liked the brand make me feel much better. Haven't hit the "Buy it now" button yet but I think I'm about to.
