Most of the tires listed here DON'T meet the specs for our vans. The Hankooks for our vans are sold by one of the list vendors, and are available through Discount Tire (where I got mine), but you have to provide Discount Tire with the information. If you just ask for a tire that meets our specs, they won't turn one up except for an extra load passenger car tire. mcneely
