Re: tire speed rating

[tr6taylor@webtv.net (Sally or Dick Taylor)]

Alan---The "V" or "H" is a letter given to designate the speed rating of
a tire. An H-rating at 130 mph should be good enough to handle the
sustained top speed of the TR6. The v-rating is supposed to be good at
150 mph. I have had both tire ratings on my cars (including a 5.0
Mustang) and could feel no difference in the handling. Tread design,
aspect ratio, and temperature rating seem to be more important to
handling, so far as tires go.
