The Michelin XCA 205/75R14 is still a top choice in a 14" tire for the
Westy/Vanagons in my book. They ar readily available, but perhaps not
through the likes of Walmart and Costco. You would just have to ask
them. The tires are, after all, from Michelins truck tire line, not from
their passenger vehicle line. of tires. But then the Westy/Vanagons need
a tall stiff walled tire for best performance.
