Actually, I run the Comp T/A VR4 (the V-rated one). I highly recommend
these. The HR4's are a completely different tire- different compound
different construction, and different tread design. I'm told they are
mediocre, but not bad.

Unless the price difference is huge, go with the VR4. I got mine for
just over $100/corner (about $104?), and they have a 50K tread life
warranty.
