Mark,
1. I have heard that Fedral tire regulations may tighten down on this wear
rating. It can always be increased.
2. I have been told by the ST drivers that their tires last longer than the
Kumhos so your cost per run goes down.

Currently your only looking at maybe a 1 or 2 second increase in time for lets
say say a GS car.
As the 140+ rubber is developed I would expect that difference to drop.
Then what?
Keep in mind the 140 stamped on the side of the tire means nothing.
