I ordered 4 Yokohama Y356 Load Range D in 185R14 from Tirerack.com and am in love with them. We don't blow around as much in crosswinds and the camper handles 1000x better.

By the way, with shipping they cost $258 to my door and another $40 to have my local shop mount and balance them. Jason Yasment '84 Westfalia Troy, NY
