By 1915, absinthe had been banned in the United States and in much of Europe, including France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and Austria-Hungary. Although absinthe was vilified, it has not been demonstrated to be any more dangerous than ordinary spirits.
During one of our recent performance rating tests on hard braking in an emergency situation, a lower âSâ rated tire driving 100 kilometres per hour was still going almost 25 km/hr when the higher âVâ rated tire stopped. The âSâ rated tire took 39 metres to stop. The âVâ rated tire stopped in 35 metres.
To find the maximum load and inflation pressure, youâll need to check the sidewall of the tire. A speed rating also has a letter code, and that is immediately after the width and aspect ratio. Itâs part of the three-digit load/speed index. This is on the tire, immediately after the complete size designation. A Z-rated tire has no maximum speed â this rating is for more than 149mph.
