Tires, no politics



Okay, so I probably got carried away on the last post <g>.  Tires: here's 
what I've found I like to run on my cars.

GTV-6: Pirelli P6000 195/60 VR-15.  Good street performance for the price.

Both 164s: Pirelli P6000 Sport Veloce, 195/65 VR-15.  Softer ride, but we 
use the 164s for commuting and long distance cruising.

I tend to stay with factory-recommended sizes.  When I bought GrayHawk, she 
was shod with 205/60-15 tires.  I didn't like the slopiness in the 
steering.  When I put the "right" size tires back on her, the handling 
improvement was impressive.
