In response to the request for a tire recomendation: A couple of months ago I put some Pirelli P77's on my 280ZX and couldn't be happier. o Excellent in heavy rain. I had no problems with hydoplaning even in standing water on the freeway (up to ~65mph) o I've driven on packed and unpacked snow and ice in the mountains with no problems. o Good sticky tires on dry pavement. The tab was 350.00 for four, mounted and computer balanced (including a Tektronix employee discount). If the requester is not concerned about adverse weather, I hear good things about the Pirelli P7. -Alan Jeddeloh {decvax, ucbvax}!tektronix!tekecs!alanj
