My van had the Uniroyal tires you mentioned
(relatively new) when we bought it in July.  They were
horrible - the van blew all over the road in any
amount of crosswind.  They are rated VERY low on the
Tirerack.com customer ratings charts (if that means
anything).  I replaced them with Michelin Agilis 61's
and it made a world of difference.  They're a little
more expensive, but worth every penny.
