Hiace Tyres & Squeek

[Al Jardin]

Hello.

I have 2 questions:

There is an intermittent high pitch squeak from the front of my Hiace. It is not too loud and sounds like a bearing problem. It is a 2005 102 280 GS swb with 74k on the clock. Is this a known problem?

Can anyone reccomend rear tyres for this van that give more grip as we don't carry any weight over the back end. I've looked at some of the winter spec van tyres, such as michelin aqilis alpin and wondered if they were any good?

Cheers.

Al
