I have a Focus ST with 235/40-18XL tires. It is ungoverned and drag limited to about 150 mph, not that I intend to drive that fast. I can find plenty of talks about not using a lower SPEED rated tire, even if you don't drive that fast because of adverse affects on handling in how the tire reacts with the suspension. Is the XL rating, affecting sidewall strength/stiffness the same? The XL rating severely limits my replacement tire choices.
Yaphank (pronounced /'jÃ¦peÉªÅk/) is a hamlet and census-designated place (CDP) in Suffolk County, New York, United States. The population was 5,945 at the time of the 2010 census. Yaphank is a community in the south part of the Town of Brookhaven. It is served by the Longwood Central School District, except for extreme southwestern Yaphank, which is served by the South Country Central School District.
Captain Robert Robinson came to Yaphank and built his Dutch Colonial house with the building dated at 1726. He was then granted permission to dam the Carmans River to build a mill across the street from his house. The construction of this mill in 1739 was considered the founding date of the Hamlet of Yaphank.
