Any Michelin tire dealer should be able to get her the Michelin XCA
205-75R14 8 ply load range D Tire. It has a vey high sidewall rating and
is an excellent replacement - even an upgrade -  for the old MXT
205-70R14.   The lady may have to tell the dealer that they are to be
found in Michelins line of commercial truck tires.

There is a very slight difference in the outside diameter of the tire,
but not enough to notice a visual difference or a performance
difference. I run these tires on my 88 GL.

Regards,

John Rodgers
88 GL Driver
