Thanks.  Actually, I did mean the Agilis 81. I have checked the archives,
but I noticed the recommendations for the 61 are specifically for
non-westys... I remember seeing a few recommendations for the 81 from
heavier westy owners.  Does anyone have any feelings about this?  I feel
like I need a load range D tire, but my feelings could be wrong, of course
(I've been riding Bridgestone RD 603 load range C for 60,000 miles, ready
for new tires).  Any advice about load ranges would be appreciated, as it is
not mentioned in the archives much.

Thanks,

John
