Here's more info on the Nokia snow tires I have on my 91 Vanagon Camper for anyone who is interested: Nokia Hakkapeliitta 10 195/70R14 M+S Tread: 5 plies (2 rayon, 2 nylon, 1 steel) Sidewall: 2 plies (rayon) Max load 615kg/1356lbs (is this load range B?) Max pressure 300 KPa/44 psi The tires have a rotation arrow on them, unlike the 09 they replaced, so they must be mounted the correct way on the wheel rim. As for handling, all I can say is that I haven't been disappointed. I don't drive my Camper in an aggressive way (although I always seem to squeal the stock Michelin MXLs on the exit ramp on the way to work), so I'm probably not a good person to comment on just what kind of beating the sidewalls will take before rolling under too much! These tires work very, very well in snow, although I must confess that I drove my old beatup Toyota 4wd truck last winter. This winter, I don't have that crutch to fall back on, but I really don't think I'll have any problems at all. -Scott =========
