This is all I have, based on a 1995 Light Truck Tire Guide, printed 
by Yokohama Canada:

Y370:
LT195/75R14
Load Range D
Ply Rating 8
Approved Rim Widths: 5.0 - 6.0 in.
Groove Depth: 8.8 mm
Max Load @ Max PSI: 1710lbs @ 65psi

Width: 207mm / 8.1 in

Only thing I can't tell you is where to find them, outside of 
Vancouver, at least.

Their web site at: http://www.yokohamatire.com/index.html
makes no mention of this tire, but I left a message asking why...
