What is your definition of a DUMBASS? It comes down to age/maturity... and grounds for this entire arguement.

Jeez, I don't know if you'd even loose control in all cases. 275/35/18's don't have much sidewall, if you don't have the tire fly apart, you could let off the gas and coast to the side. Been there done that. I've had a left rear tire on my Expedition blow out at speed on I75 (80mph) and had no problem getting to the side of the road, don't know why all those bozos kept rolling their Explorers? I've had a 225/50/15 on an Isuzu pickup blow and kept on driving to work, the sidewall was stiff enough that it practically acted like a run flat.

More fuel for the discussion fire...I still think driving more than 80 or 90 is dumb, but I still do 120 on the onramps on occasion, or 135 passing a couple of semi's...never sustained though...

the highest ive pushed mine was 90, only cause i started to scare the bejezus out of myself, no way can i do that in the U.S.

The fastest Ive ever gone was on an empty strip of desert out here in Arizona, about 104mph. Want to know how I keep my speed down.... v6. :p :'( :D
