I guess there's a degree of subjectivity here as I find the handling very poor at most any speed.... especially in a cross wind or a high speed turn with bumps/dips.... I think this suspension along with the height of the van would be death in the event of a high speed blow out.... another good reason to buy the best tires and, in my opinion, not to drive over 70 mph... I guess that's 4 cents now :) Bill |
