I noticed that the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ is offered in the following configs.
- 225/40/18 (Y speed rating only)
- 235/40/18 (H or Y speed rating)
Considering the H speed rating is good for max 130mph/210kmh, I know that this is more than I need for my DD. Also noting that the stock Hankooks are also H speed rated.
Worth noting is the price difference as well (Tirerack USD).
225/40/18 92Y - $169
235/40/18 95H - $181
235/40/18 95Y - $193
I was already leaning towards a 235 tire, so it would seem that the 95H would be the best choice.
Is there an expected difference in ride quality/grip performance between H vs Y speed rated tires?
