Tim -

I have run Kumho 852s in 195R-14 on my '87 Westy with good results.  Can't
speak for their all-season qualities, because I put four traction tires on
in the winter, but they are very solid for normal highway driving, dry or
wet.

The best results have been 45-50 psi rear, and 38-40 psi front.

That's one reason I would be concerned about the Road Venture ST.  It's a P
type tire, which probably means it can't run over 35 psi, so you might find
it too soft, especially on the rear end, which you don't want with a Camper.

Check with Kumho and see what the max pressure is before making a decision.

I have started looking for new tires and ran across a Kumho model that looks
promising.

They are the RoadVENTURE ST Series.

I am most interested in the 215/70R 14 size with the 96 load rating. The
245/60R
14 with the 98 load rating also could be an option. The 215 has a RPM of 805
which is the same as my speedo marking, while the 245 has an RPM of 815.
Both
have reinforced sidewalls. I currently have 6.5" wide rims, so rim width
shouldn't be an issue with either tire.

Kumho also offers their Commercial A/S 852 series in 185, 195 section widths
for
the 14" x 5.5" rim. Both of these are "D" rated tires.
