Actually, I have had good luck with the Hankook D load range tires. They have been available on the West Coast for about 5 years. I drove a Westy cross-country on them about four years ago, and they handled very well. Wore well too. I just put another set on my current Westy because I was happy with the first set. (Besides, at under $60 each the price was right. :-) Once again I'm happy with the way this van rides on them. Hopefully they will wear as well as the first set did. - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc.
