[s-cars] Re: tire recommendation

[Kirby Smith]

In my not so 'umble opinion, what matters is how well one can stop when 
required, how well one can maneuver around a hazard, or a child, and how 
well one can survive a mistake in attention, e.g., misestimating a 
tightening radius turn. I don't believe any tire that can last 65 
kmiles, or even 65k km, will provide this performance as well as one 
optimized for wet and dry traction.  I wouldn't buy tires that I 
expected to last more than 20 kmiles.

Noise is not a requirement of good performance.  But even a very quiet 
tire will become more noisy as it wears due to small variations in tread 
wear.

My recommendation is select among the highest performance tires that 
will correctly fit on your wheels.
