I'm not sure I'd go with the performance claim
In Response To: Or Have a Look Here [Sneak Preview] ()

They weren't the only ones at it, but Lamborghini were well known for vastly exaggerating performance figures and for the Countach in particular. Independent tests had the LP400 topping out somewhere around 160 mph, and the power increase wouldn't account for another 40. Not that the tyres were rated anywhere near that anyway. But as the info came from Lamborghini, it's tempting to dismiss it as more flim-flam.
