This has been discussed at length on the GTI VR6 and VW VR6 mailing lists. The consensus seems to be that they are very close in overall performance. They do lean towards the SP-9000 being better in the wet by a small margin, and the SP-8000 being better in the dry. Looking at their respective tread designs, it's not surprising. Of course, the negatives are the SP-9000 is roughly 1/3 more expensive than an SP-8000 in the same size, and the SP-8000 isn't currently available in some of the most popular sizes. --Holland Forced Failure Racing Don't Ask MotorSports [email protected] a2_16V List Owner [email protected] San Jose, California _____________ List Sponsor: http://www.netsville.com To remove yourself from this list, send mail to [email protected] with 'unsubscribe a2_16v' in the body of your message See us on the web at http://www.a2-16v.com Visit the 16V Homepage at http://www.gti16v.org
