You CAN get the Yokohama 370 at Tire Rack, but you must call them directly.
They are not listed on their website.  I just bought a set last week at $57
each.  After having them mounted, I was disappointed with their stability,
but the tire shop had only put 35 lbs in each.  Once I pumped them up to the
list recommended 44/52, they drove great.

Anyone used/able to give info on specific models?  I can't get the Yoko 370
but can get the newer Yoko 356. What significant differences? Also has
anyone
used the Dunlop LT tire? This is for an '89 Westie.
   Had loud lifter noise upon cold startup after van sat for a week;
remedied
when I replaced light oil/Penzoil filter the van came with.  Used Mahle
filter, Castrol 20w-50.  I still wonder just how much the lifter end
customized itself.
