Besides, customer ratings of tires on a Volvo station wagon have very little to nothing to offer a Spyder owner. Also on Tire Rack's site, you cannot compare ratings for tires in different use classes. The numbers do not correlate.

Then again, either choice is FAR better than the OEM Chinese junk.
" you cannot compare ratings for tires in different use classes " ..... actually you can ... using Tire Science to determine the proper PSI, an Auto tire is better ( for many technical reasons ) than the OEM tires that are on the Spyders when they are built & sold ..... my opinion is a result of my schooling and the decades I spent as a certified accident investigator....
