I'm surprised at how quickly they responded, but completely unsurprised at the lack of an actual answer. Fingers crossed someone ran both 260TW and 200TW in close sizes and can comment further.

I did find the post I was talking about. @BlueWhelan looks like you're still around, do you have some more insight on this perhaps?

One week they were good, the next they were a mess and got progressively worse as the weeks went by. Like Ice after about a month.
Sounds like the 235/40R17 size (in 200TW) wore out faster and didn't handle abuse as well as the 225/45R17 (260TW).
