When I see "Tires" in the subject line, it's been my fancy to hit the
delete key without even reading the e-mail. I'm sure many on this list do
the same thing.
Well, shame on me. Now I need tires for Phred and I'm completely
uninformed and ignorant.
Vanagon.com suggests the Michelin MXT, which are presently on Phred. I
tried to search the archives but have timed out a few times. A phone call
the the local Michelin dealer tell me they are are no longer available.
Okay. How 'bout the Agilis? Nope. Not in your size.
So off I go to the Michelin web site. Inputting vehicle information, their
site recommends the RainForce MX4. Well that's different. Off to
Tirerack.com. They don't even list a 205/70R14 tire for the Vanagon.
So, if there are any non-Westy, Wolfsburg or Carat owners out there with
tire recomendation I love to hear them. So as not to incite a flame war,
I'd appreciate a response via p-mail.
Thanks for your help.
