Al, I just put my second set of D60A2s on my urQ. I am generally happy with them, though they have been tricky to get balanced unless it's my car. The speed ratings, H vs V, are related to how fast you plan to drive. Unless you plan to exceed the H speed rating, you won't have a problem. There's nothing inherent in the design of the car that requires a particular rating, other than the car's speed potential. >I have followed with interest the thread on these tires.
