Yokohama Tire Recommendation for '89 245 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Greg on  Fri May 31 03:02 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I am on the fence on which tires I should buy for my '89 245. I currently am using an S-rated Michelin MX4 Rainforce in a 185/R14. I hate 'em- they are narrow and squeel when pulling out from a stop. Handling is poor and they are absolutely horrifying in wet weather as well. The only benefit seems to be long tread life. My first disappointment with Michelin (I have been a loyalist to that make).

Anyhow I am considering 2 tires in a 195/70/14- an H-rated Yokohama Avid H-4 and an S-Rated Avid Touring. Would the stiffer sidewall of the Avid H4 be more appropriate than the touring type. Any experieince out there with these on a wagon? Thanks!
