I'm not familiar with the tires your deciding between, as I've been a relatively happy Michelin MXV Energy Plus guy for several years now. Nut i can tell you about H rated tires. I wouldn't do it. I tried them once and could immediately feel the difference - less cornering ability, and less sense of confidence in emergency moves, hard braking, fast turns, as well as general raod feel. I'm sure different brands perform differently between their H rated tires and those at the V and/or W rated levels, but my point is you can expect to lose something in the switch, and if that includes emergency road handling - which for me in the Michelins was clear, than I would strongly advise against it.
- My 2 cents...
