I am not sure this is an out dated topic at that - as it seems the tire work is changing fast. I have a set of the Hankooks 185s on my one Van. They are fine in wet and dry conditions and on highway et el. Snow and any mud....forget it. So I avoid those situations aap. I am now looking however for a 195 14 inch LT tire for my new van. That seems a more difficult proposition. The only reasonable one I can see is the yokohama http://www.tireteam.com/Tires/Yokohama/Y356/1957514/35602.html . BF Goodrich and Michilin I think make them, but they can be over $200 a pop. Anyone elst out there know of a better 195?
