Glad you found it useful and appreciate the significance of deferring to the Pros. I am certainly very grateful to them(Tire Rack) for their published results. It is a huge advance on the old days when merely Brand name, reputation or anecdotes determined tire selection for enthusiasts.
One other Tire retailer used to publish somewhat similar test buy I can't remember.Was it Big O ?
