[urq] AP Calipers

[Brandon Rogers]

When I bought my car it had Gislaved studded snows - I think 185 75 IIRC and
I tell you- full throttle launches on packed snow streets were no problem at
all....
Now I have some pretty lame, I mean tame Michelins - Pilot Alpins - they
are, however , much better in the dry, which is, unfortunately,  what 99%
percent of my winter driving is here in Denver...
