Subject:      Winter Tire Installer/Dealer in the DC area
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"


Hi all,


Anybody have suggestions for a dealer of winter/snow tires in the DC area?
I'm about to head up to Canada for a couple of months and I want to be
prepared.  The archives have lots of recommendations for the Nokia
Hakkapellitta (which I think means, "Word too long for foreigners to
comprehend" or "ha! look how we can combine multiple words into one really
long and annoying word!"), but it seems none of the 185/75R14 sized models
have a high enough load weighting for our vanagons (the 205s do but are they
ok for our vans?).  Tire pressure seems to be an issue with the Bridgestone
Blizzaks.  Are there any others models that y'all can recommend?
