In my search to buy new tires for my new (for me) 1990 Multivan, I have found that a lot of places do not carry LT tires in the smaller size of 205R70/14. However, some do carry LT tires in 195R75/14 and have said that they should work but that they would have to try them out to tell. Does anyone have experience with this tire size?
