Volks,


I  just bought an 84 Westy that has a mix of the wrong kind of tires on it
and am looking to put new tires all round.  Has anyone used the Uniroyal
Laredo AWP?
According to the Uniroyal specs, the Laredo AWP  195/75R14 C has a UTQG of
440A C, a max load of 1435 lbs and a max pressure of 50 psi and an all season
tread pattern.   Is this tire sufficiently strong/stiff for the Vanagon?
Wallmart will sell me these tires for $63.00 each and mount and balance them
for another $10.00 each.  Does anyone out there have a better combination of
price and suitability in an all-season vanagon tire?


                                TIA,
                                John
