his Prius out onto the Autobahn (sp?).
The Prius tops out at around 101 MPH or so. Won't go any faster. As I recall, it's a transmission-limiter thing. But then again, I'm not a techie.

I don't know! Where do you live? Maybe we can switch wheels and tire for a couple of weeks and I can get us some comparison data.jdbower said:I love my SP9000 summer tires and my WinterSport M2 snowshoes. When the stock tires wear out I'm thinking of replacing them with Dunlop Sport A2 performance tires or SP40 all season tires. Dunlops traditionally handle VERY well in the rain, wonder how they'd compare with your Michelins.
