I too replaced the Michelin LTX tires that were on my 88 Westy with Agilis
61 last spring, before our trip to Florida.  I wish I had done it much
earlier.  The van handles better and is not subject to being tossed around
so much in a cross wind.  It even seems more nimble driving around town but
that could just be my imagination.
