Default dunlop sp winter sport 3d 91H or 94V?

hi all,

getting ready to order some winter tires (225 45 R17) and i am going to go with the dunlop sp winter sport 3d. i live in new york and i am on coilovers. what are your experience with the 91H and 94V? i am trying to determine if it's better to get the 94V for the stiffer sidewall for better performance and potholes endurance...and want to make sure that the ride won't be too harsh.

thanks in advance!

Default Damn the ride - protect your wheels

your ride will be really bad after the pavement contacts the metal wheel!

So, actually, I'd suggest a 16" wheel or thinking about 235/45 at least in 17.

Default Agreed, but I would like to add that the difference is minimal.

Both in ride and in pothole damage resistance.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/winter/index.jsp">winter</a></li></ul>
