Ya know, I had always thought the default was 90%, but 82 makes much more sense. Long ago I had a pair of Michelin X M+S88 165 snow tires which were 88% profile. They were great in the snow, but they always made the car seem tippy and topheavy, so they were a mixed blessing. Thanks for clearing up my confusion. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
