Do you remember your first tricycle or maybe bicycle that had those hard
rubber tires? Well the Vanco has perfected the tire to recreate that feel.
The ultimate traction free and stiff as wood tire. Don't worry about tread
wear. The belts will shift and the tire will go out of round or the tread
will separate long before the wear bars show.

Go for the Hakkapeliittas if you want a truck type winter tire for the
Vanagon.

Hi all.

Thanks to the archives, I found a link to Vanco Winters here in the
lower mainland. (Vancouver B.C.)

Anyone using these? Opinions.

I've read that the Vanco 8's have a pretty stiff sidewall (something I
would like) Do the Vanco Winter tires have the same type of stiff
sidewall?

Thanks!

Neil.
