I'm running the Michelin Agilis 205/65R/15C's and I can't speak highly enough about them. This is after running the Michelin MXT's on the stock 14 inch steel rims. It's like driving a completly different Westy. The wind is barely a factor but you can still feel it play with that brick that you're trying to keep in between those white lines.................

What size tire are all the 15" wheel folks using? I've heard a bunch of sizes, up to 235/75R15, which seems huge. I'm looking for experience more than conjecture. Any tips on how performance and speedo changes would be great.

Thanks all
