This is great tire for price. Note that the tire you are looking at is a 205/70-14, not 205/80-14. This is a passenger car tire. I would go with the 215/70-14 which will get you up to a 96 load index. You will need to get a different spare tire carrier and the hold downs if you want either of these tires as a spare. Dennis
