I have about 400 miles on a new set of Y356s.  So far, so good.  I bought
the D range tires and run them at 37 PSI front and 43 rear with an unloaded
camper.  I understand they have been discontinued, but there are a lot of
them still for sale.  Discount tire had the 185R14s for $62.  C range was
$56.  I also looked at the Michelin Agilis 61 and Goodyear Wrangler HT, but
both are more than $110 in my area.  The Yokos seem to be an excellent tire
for the cost.
