Re: [doc] RE: tyres!

Still only P600/P6000 combination, but they're fantastic tyres and I 
have never heard a bad word said about them.

The P600 is the only decent tyre available in 235/60-15 in this country. 
Thankfully it's an excellent tyre. The fronts have been superceeded by 
the P6000 which have an amost identical sidewall but the tread is 
different. No longer available on a V rating, only on H which is still 
145mph or something. The rears are W which is about as fast as you can get!

Why do I frown on the 225 rears? Hmmmm. Because it's not "right" - which 
is an argument you could pick holes in till you're blue in the face on 
my own car :-) But I'd rather have the correct size and a slightly 
mis-matched set than vice-versa
