Hey Kurt,

I've had those Yokohamas on a couple of different vans.  They were okay on
dry pavement, but all other conditions were "iffy".  IMO...

Cheers,

Jeff

Subject: Re: TIRES

I am not sure this is an out dated topic at that - as it seems the tire work
is changing fast.  I have a set of the Hankooks 185s on my one Van.
They are fine in wet and dry conditions and on highway et el.   Snow and
any mud....forget it.  So I avoid those situations aap.   I am now looking
however for a 195 14 inch LT tire for my new van.  That seems a more
difficult proposition.  The only reasonable one I can see is the yokohama
http://www.tireteam.com/Tires/Yokohama/Y356/1957514/35602.html .  BF
Goodrich and Michilin I think make them, but they can be over $200 a pop.
 Anyone elst out there know of a better 195?
