Subject:      16 inch tire size
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

I have Nokian 215 65 16 tires on the front of my van and on the rear I have
 Uniroyal 215 75 16's  I like the rear size but they rub in the front
during  braking turns.  I do not want to cut out my fenders.  I would like the
same size all around so I can have a spare that will work front or rear.
I'm thinking 215 70 16 maybe a radial TA  I want a high load rating a an
easier tire to find than  a continental or Nokian.  I have a 2 wd with  Go Westy
lift springs.  Hit me with suggestions.
