H rated tires on a '91 560 sec

[nabdo]

Just got rejected by Costco when I asked if they would mount 4 Potenza RE950. They said that for liability purposes they can only mount v rated tires, and the potenzas are h-rated.

In hindsight i would have bought v-rated, some how slipped my mind to check, thought for sure the potenzas were v-rated.

is this as a big deal as costco is making it, what are the ill effects?

any comments on the RE950, anyone used these?

thanks

"H" rated tires are the minimum spec for a w126 SEC ... the Costco guys are NOT CORRECT in their assesment of your tire needs ... and the RE950 is a very good tire
