  I run those monroes on my van, too.    Big improvement over the KYBs that
were on there...though I have no idea of how old those may have been.  They
did still feel like they were working on the bench after I removed them.

   I'll go looking in the wrecking yards for some Eurovan wheels.   Sounds
like a reasonably inexpensive way to get some 15" rims for the next time I
need tires.
