>I bought the Kirland's about 5k ago and they seem fine. >I think they good tires for the buy, and they are c rated. Hey these >aren't SUV's - thank our lucky stars. > Most C rated tires have an inadequate load index for a Vanagon especially a Westy. You need to look at the 'load index' on the sidewall, not the 'C' rating which has little meaning. Also, KIrkland tires are available only from Costco - a private members club. Not everyone can quailfy to be a member. |
