non spec'd TIRES...you'll be appalled but.......

I'm not putting V rated tires on my wife's 9-5. I may not even match the .55 profile as low prof is more expensive. My wife obeys the speed laws and has never cornered at more than .001 G, so what am I missing? I'd rather drive my beat up 900T (recently fitted with JATO bottles in case I run across a red-box,water-injected,over-boosted challenger) than
the 9-5 which is clearly quick but lacks heart and, oh yeah, road feel. Does anyone have a non-purist argument that might make me reconsider?
