Let me tell you this-----

I don't care if you had solid struts for shocks---and tracks for the
Van----

If a Mack blew past you at any speed, it would try and suck in the
rolling 4x8 plywood box---

I have all new shocks--had a  all wheel alignment,and running the Yoko
356-D's--and the thing still blows around---

Had one  hell of a wind here today--and the Westy still blow's around in
gust's-----

Just about the same as my GL with jipo Cooper's on it--

Not quite as bad--but close---

I think the HD tire thing is a fallacy---

Almost forgot... how are these in a�wind? Or when Mack Trucks drive by
you?
