Acellera ultra 2 tires, so far so good and impressed

[vanjoe]

So here is why I went with these tires. I bought my van back in November and it's been my daily driver project. I have been trying to get all the critical maintenance done because it sat for over 4 years. The tires on it were Yokohama 6 ply van tires and we're a little out of round and the van had a little shake because of it so I was planning on doing them about this time anyways. On my 19 87 I had back in 2011 I put Hankook RA08 tires on it and they worked great. So last Friday the tires on my new van had gotten so bad it felt like my van was going to fall apart. I called around on Saturday and tires stores had any 185 r14 8 ply in stock except a little mom and pop tires store had a brand new set of these Acellera tires. So I research them and they they met what I was looking for and they weren't "Made in China" which was a big factor. So I got all 4 installed for $320 out the door. I have driven on them over 500 miles so far and in the rain today and I am surprisingly pretty damn impressed with them so far.

Yep.
I got a set of acellera alpha for about 50 ea with a 99 load rating and I like em.
About 30,000 miles and still a lot of tread left.
Way better tires than I had expected.
