Subject:      tires

   Huh, I'm looking for tires -- I've got Yokohama Y370 on my Mercedes 15" rims,
205/70/15 on the front and 215/70/15 on the back, but the back ones which were
great on my '73 bus with an '81 2.0L gas engine in it are just a tad too tall
for my '82 diesel westy. Not bad, but I'm not getting anymore top end than I
was with the 185/70/14s that were on there, which indicates to me that the
engine just can't quite pull that diameter.
   So anyway, I was looking for some 215/65/15s or 205/70/15s -- but sure am not
finding anything in LT tires or loadratings of 97.
   Yokohama no longer makes the Y370, Michilen no longer, it seems, makes the
Agilis -- what is there?
