There are some of these Korean tires installed on the rear of my 84 Westfalia... they're only 6 ply and the tread is OK. The local Volkswagen dealer has the 8 ply Hankook tires for $104 each installed and ballanced. Two of these are going on the front tomorrow.

I can't attest to how good these are but a set of 4- $356 is intriguing. Jim
