Without reservation, I echo Tim's opinion regarding using Vredesteins on a
Volvo.  Unfortunately, the last time I went to buy a set, probably 10 years
ago, I was told they were no longer available in the USA.  It was suggested
that they could be had from Canada but, only via a convoluted means that also
doubled their cost.


Now, does anybody know who is distributing them?  I will need a set before
winter and since the Hakka 10's are good, the Vredesteins should be GREAT.
