Thanks John, I had not read the entire thread. If I remember right didn't Busterbrown originally break a spring on a trip to Alaska?

I plan to only upgrade my tires. The Goodyears have a higher load rating which should give me the 10% over factor. I never load to max anyway. I plan to keep the 14" rims that came with my TT.

So question still is: Remain with the ST205/75R 14 which is the OEM tire size or move to the ST215/75R 14?

Any reason to/or not to?

The 215 is .5" taller. A bit wider but still rated to mount on my 5.5" wide rim and has a max load rating of 2,200#

the 205 has a max load rating of 2,040
Both at 65 psi

My OEM tires have a load rating of C while the Goodyears are D And I believe my memory tells me the Max load on the OEMs is aprx. 1,800# at 50 psi.

Thanks
Oak
