Hope there are good ones

Postby xit [OP] » April 16th 2012, 9:03pm

Just bought a set of new tires today :D . A set of Hankook Milage Plus II 215x75x15 WSW, they look pretty good, lots of tread. I read several reviews & they rated very well, we will see. Price was ok, right at $100 each mounted, balanced & new valve stem. The old tires were not bad & I can put them on my pickup, just wanted the peace of mind that new tires brings.

I used to dislike whitewalls, but now that we rarely see them, I kind of like them, depending on the vehicle. With those wheels, I think the ww look good. Any pics of a side view to see the overall look?

I had those tires on a company van once (a Windstar), they seemed fine. No performance or all terrain tire, but decent all season passenger tire.
