Here's the correct link - the previous one didn't seem to work properly.<br> <br> http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/general/speed.htm<br> <br> One question I have - given two equivalent tires in terms of model and size, do you sacrifice anything in terms of comfort or tire life for a higher speed rating?<br> <br> I had a choice between ZR and YR tires and took the YR, for the higher speed rating, for those regular days when I'm doing 186mph <br> <br> Any ideas?

I’ve just brought my car in for a service to the garage I bought it from and they told me that after 10 months, my brakes are worn to 90% with...

Fellas:
I am in the process of converting my 1991 560SEC to the NON self leveling susupension. Besides the rear shocks and springs from a NON SLS car, what all needs to be done? Can the Hydraulic setup be plugged? Do I have to repace the front shocks and springs as well?
The car is currently...
