I'm presently running standard passenger car 205-14s.  Won't be that many 
more miles until it's time to re-tire (the van, that is). I'm seriously thinking 
about going to a multi-ply truck or SUV tire....the reason being to gain a 
little more highway-speed stability (due to stiffer side walls). Finding a 
high-performance water shedding tire, also meeting the criteria first stated, would 
be a plus: my wife drives the van on a daily basis, and I'd like to give her 
every safety advantage possible. As the vehicle is equipped with Addco 
anti-sway bars, the clearance room at the front--inside tire wall area--is a little 
tight.... Wouldn't want to go much wider. Has anyone out there heard of or used 
a true truck tire (8+ ply), or SUV tire on FC vehicle? Safety and performance 
counts more than $$$.
Thanks,
Mike Mauro
