Well this is the third time I have tried to send this...Damn work
email!!
All,
I had a little free time to throw together a quick list comparing
several tires (all in stock size and either V or Z rated). Since spring
is on its way I thought this may be of some use??
I have the excel version which is much nicer, if you want it just reply
privately.
