Subject:Mastercraft (Cooper) Courser tires
From:M.R. Nimmo
Date:Fri, 7 May 1999 23:59:29 -0700

I just put a new pair of shoes on my vanagon, after
knocking the rust off of the wheels.  I REALLY wanted
Michelins, but just couldn't justify paying almost
twice as much.

I got a set of Mastercraft Courser R/D 195r14's.
These are made by Cooper and are 8 ply D rated M&S
tires that are somewhere between A/S and A/T's.  I got
them for under $300 for all four on the rims!  My
brother and another friend have gotten good service
out of other Courser's.

I'll give you a report on how it rides once I install
a new gas tank and rear heater in the beast.

Now if I could just decide on shocks....
KYB, Monroe, or Gabriel gas.  (I'll have to pass on
the Bilsteins or Boges just as I passed on the
Michelins.)
