Usual lurker here with some info from a Les Schwab Tire Center (don't know if
they are a national chain or just out here in the west/northwest.  Just had
my snows swapped out for my summer tires (it's snowing now ...!)   Anyway,
FWIW, here's some specs on tires they carry that might be of interest:

Product Code     Description                         Remarks
Revs/mi
01110234          185R-14/6 Jupiter SV-820     6 ply, 1450 lbs     809
01110235          185R-14/8 Jupiter SV-820     >
02114116           LT195/75R-14 Wildcat         6 ply, 1435 lbs     797

The tread on the Wildcat looked pretty aggressive.  They also had in their
catelog a similar 6 ply Wildcat "Touring" that probably rode quieter but it
had a similar load rating of 1435 which I understand to be on the light side.
 The 8 ply Jupiter has two ply sidewalls.  The most expensive was the Wildcat
at $71 each which seems like a good deal.
