I had heck of a time convincing Sears that they had ANY tires for the van. I didn't get the ATP (they didn't mention such a thing), but I did get some Trailhandlers -- 195/75 14 Reinforced six ply and all that. They drove like crap.

Sears said they wouldn't inflate them past 40, so I just let them put the 36 in them that they wanted to and then I put 45 in them when I got home. Today I'll put 48 in them like is supposed to be.
