Listers in the know, correct me if I am wrong, but when you read the speed
ratings on the tires, don't the higher speed ratings also generally give you
better sidewall rigidity? That is one reason I went with Pirellis over
Yokohamas in the price range I was considering ($30-40). Check this page of
information out: <A
HREF="http://www.discounttiredirect.com/discount.splash.html";>Discount Tire
Direct: Discount Tire Direct Home</A> . If that doesn't get you to the Speed
Ratings page, go to "Help Desk" then to "Speed Ratings". It provides a
statement to the effect that higher speed ratings boost handling.
