Hi' all

RCZ-R ..I mentioned the load index simply to point it out as I was put off the Goodyears purely because of the fact of the load rating even though in real world terms I'm sure it wouldn't really make a difference other than maybe to an insurance company. ,,Like I say its the 'power of marketing' AND Peugeot simply adjusting their recommendation to suit that of their supplier, therefore I bet 92 / 96 load rating probably in your words equates to B******* even if I can't bring myself to write it !
Renegade79 ,,did your supplier forget to tell you that "the big blue" owns the warehouse next to that racetrack in France and its where I store all my part worn re-treads prior to selling them as new
AND on my final controversial note ,,its the Eurocrats that have made an issue about tyre noise and once again those damn marketing fiends that have packaged it nicely to help sell their products! Tyre noise inside the cabin can be dealt with by manufacturers using sufficient noise isolation and deadening materials in the wheel arches etc BUT that would add weight and weight adds to emissions. Road surface is probably the greatest influence ,,not to mention all the pot holes in the UK.
Next the Eurocrats will turn their attention to 'engine noise' as the governing body did with Formula 1 and didnt they sound nice in 2014

. If all this carries on we'll end up with hybrid petrol/ electric engines in our Z's ,,did I hear someone whisper PRIUS as they are mighty quiet AND have a unique styling silhouette also !!
