As for the tires, since it's for a van, I'm assuming you want something with lots of tread life and a pretty good ride.

The only experience I have with a tire that fits that description is the Yokohama AVID Tourings. It's a decent tire, comes with an 80k mile warranty on it, and I never had any problems with it on my mom's Toyota Previa. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....e1=yes&place=1

Although, from TireRack's reviews, it seems the Kumho Solus is pretty good too, and comes with an 85k mile warranty: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....e1=yes&place=0

The Khumo's look good but Those Yokohamas sound like the way to go...
