Message	good? I was looking at the Tire Rack rating thing and ppl say they are very good there. I have had 2 sets of Yoko A520's now, and I really liked my first set, but the second set sucked, If I couldn't see them, I would swear they were a different type of tire. Anyway, the TWI on the Yoko's is like 180, and the Kumho's are like 340. That is sinifigantly higher, and I am wondering how that translated into reduced grip or what? Ppl seem to have ranked the grip of the Kumho higher than the Yoko's...what am I missing here, is there not a direct correlation btwn compound softness and grip? I need some new tires for my NA very soon, and am not sure what to get. I want to spend about $100/tire or so. Thanks, Mike Yeah, I know mine's an N/A! :-) AIM name: my91z MSN name: my91z
