Yup, they're great. And if you get them at Costco, you get a road hazard warranty too, which i understand is usually unavailable for light truck tires. At least they're good in the snow, not sure how they work in Hawaii Mick!

However, do the 195/75/14 throw off my speedometer? At 4000 rpm, I'm going 120 km/h. Does that jive with everyone else?
