Hello all,

I also have recently put the Y370s on my van ('91 Carat) and I've been trying different pressures. Vanagon.com states something like 53 rear/ 43 front. I think that must be for a westy. My van is a non-camper so it's not near as heavy. My previous tires were passenger tires and the Yokos are a lot stiffer ride. I'm currently running 45 rear/ 40 front. Am I safe in doing this? Could I even go lower?

BTW Sears currently has a "ALL tires on sale" going till April 3rd. I'm planning on ordering a spare Y370. The salesman told me when I bought mine that when they have these sales it applies to special order tires also.

Later, Bill Wichita, KS
