re: I didn't see that size listed for the 61 series The "80" is seldom included because it is the default value. That is, 185 R14C AGILIS 61 TL 99R is indeed 185/80-14. re: Why all this emphasis on the word 'reinforced'? When a "passenger" car tire is modified for heavy duty use, it is labled "reinforced." (This is mostly applicable with European tires.) This describes the MX and MXL and MXT. "Truck" tires are normally rated by load range, such as "C," "D," etc. As visible above, the Agilis is a "C" truck tire. A previous poster quoted a Michelin rep as saying the MX is probably better, and I agree. European truck tires are pretty stiff, and I think comfort and handling are definitely second priorities. If you really want snow tires, "D" snows are available at http://www.nokiantires.com/ This is hard to use: click "light truck," then when that page loads again click "light truck" (on the left); then click "commercial," and finally click "Hakkapeliitta10C."
