Watching the list and having added my own opinions about tires I am just
facing the urgent need for new tires for my Syncro. My old Michelin LTX are
worn to a level where I don't want it to rain any more. I was looking for a
tire which also has good off road stamina.

Unfortunately the Michelin LTX (195/14) does not seem to be available in
Canada for the next couple of weeks until they do a new production run.
Costco is now selling a Uniroyal all season which I don't like. It seems to
be a highway tire and I did not like Uniroyal handling in wet conditions in
the past (with Tiger Paw). Sears has a tire on sale which is an relabeled
Michelin LTX called XC LT4, but they are on backorder. 

So with some trepidation I decided on the Yokohama Superdigger (SD05
195/14). It is supposedly an 8 ply tire. What experience have people had
with this one?
