Mike, you forgot about the Yokohama Advan AO48's that
just came out.  We just put a set on a friend's car
and with swaybars and a suspension (on ricebox Evo, of
course), those things are so grippy that the car was
leaning significantly more than with the stock Yoko
Advan AO46's.

Treadwear's 60, though.  Oh, well.  :-)
