You could also remind us of the failure of a couple of your Coker tires on your F while driving the narrow, curvy roads with the 1000 foot drop-offs while we were all at Lake Tahoe a couple of years ago.

  Every time such a discussion comes on the list, I intend to remind folks of 
  my experience a few years ago with old rims/new radials. I had taken the F 
  up to 125 mph for a short blast and got a long blast from 
  "She-from-whom-we-must-hide-the-invoices" about not doing that again, EVER! The next day when 
  caught in 5 mph freeway crawl, the left rear wheel split internally at the base 
  of the bead wall. The split was 4 inches long and all the air left in a big 
  hurry. Got my attention!!
