No matter how one normally drives on an everyday basis, our tires can be called upon in certain situations to perform with a high degree of performance (e.g., emergency braking or swerving to avoid a pedestrian or animal, etc.). In those cases, I want matching tires on all four wheels. And if they're ultra high performance, N-spec tires, so much the better.

If all I did was putter around town, I'd still want first class brakes and, just as importantly, first class, matching tires. The tires have as much to do with brake performance as do the brakes themselves.

And now I'm thinking....do any of us just putter around town in our Porsches? If we do, the dynamics and pleasure of the car will never be tapped. That would be sad.
