Blizzak LM-25 Snow Tires...H or V Rated?
Well, it's that time of year again..to worry about snow. And my old LM-22's are worn down now, so I am looking at the newer LM-25's. However, I noticed that there is an H-rated and V-rated version of it. I was wondering if anyone had any input. I suppose that the H-rated rides a bit softer than the V? There is about a $10-15 difference.

either will work, typically, in a snow tire, the lesser speed rating, the better snow performance... downfall, obviously, is a lower top speed of the tire...
get the lowest you feel comfortable with, and that you won't exceed...
it's accepted that you can drop 1 speed rating when using snow tires...
car came with Z, V is ok, car came with V, H is ok (however, personally, if a car has a performance rated tire, anything over H, I would never drop below H)
