    OK, it *was* a british company.

    Anyhow, what's the likelyhood an american company would construct tyres
    differently for the UK and Continental Europe markets? I'd say slim.

    Isn't that where Firestone fucked up with their Ford Exploder tyres?

    You know, that's one of those stereotypes which is far too accurate.
    The only thing you're missing is the sausage-eating, which always
    accompanies the other activities.

    Matey is pulling your leg.

    Z rating is Z rating all over the world (well maybe with the exception
    of Merkinland where they might confuddle it with "C").

    And a big fat zero out of ten for his attempt on selling you his tyres.
