There is only one point that I made which to date has never been addressed....If you think I implied "ALL" tires then you implied your definition as factual....same interpretation applies. I brought about facts to support my end of the discussion.....they went unanswered and only the "dot" crap was brought up which if you look back....DOT and drag tires were never part of my points of contention.

Just looking for a discussion here that stays on track and on topic....which apparently is a waste of time since it can't happen

Yes Paul, DOT approved ratings meant nothing until YOU brought it up as fact in support of YOUR argument. I called street tires what they are IN MY DEFINITION way before the DOT approved comment was made. You even quoted my interpretation, but I wasn't the one trying to prove X wasn't Y.

I don't have to address whether or not 160-250 is a street tire because DOT approved number dictates a street tire, not treadwear rating. Since the guberment dictates which tires are allowed on public roads, I think the guberments classification trumps any industry classification since they won't be the ones that will be paying my tickets. So yes, it was all a pointless debate in what I thought was a useless goal since they are all street tires.

No matter what "classification" anybody puts X in, I am still going to buy "street tires" (by my definition here.) based on treadwear ratings.

Please read my replies in this thread again... the ONLY issue I was arguing is the DOT "all-weather" statement you made. As far as the rest of the crap you guys are going back and forth about, I could care less. Like I said earlier, to me it's just how one defines the terminology.

Screw all you hosers. My quick time pros are street tires!

I drove to work on them today. Had an SS that acted like he wanted some. I thought to myself, Go ahead Bitch! I'll even give you the move.
