RE:RE: Tires of different types

["PAT MARTIN" <MARDKINS@msn.com>]

I have found Mich. to be the highest QUALITY tires around but as far as 
performance goes I dont think that the tires you mention are necessarily the 
best ultra performance tires. They are very capable tires that will give you 
good tread life and decent wet performance but the racers on this list can 
give you 20 tires better as a high performance tire.  By quality I mean long 
life, clean look, no bounce when cold(unlike a certain Italian manufacturer), 
very few seperations and excellent warranty service. As far as the different 
models I wouldnt say that the V-4s are going to be much, if any, better than 
the H-4s.
