Hey;
    I finally bit the bullet and bought a set of Gowesty alloy rims and
wheels.  They do look great and ride and handle great. I have a set of 4
Michelin XCA 205-75R14 tires with about 20K on them.  They have more than
60% tread (maybe 70%) left.  They are rated at over 2200 per tire and 8
ply rated (that means no flats).  They handle great (no VW bus Dance after
a semi goes by).
    This is a great set of tires to go to Alaska.  You won't get flats.
The only negative I can see is that they are not that great in the snow.
Rain they are OK.
    I would like 250 US for the set including the wheels.  I might give
you a discount if you promise to go to Alaska next summer.  I will deliver
within 100 miles of Bellingham, WA.  Included in the delivery is a test
drive of a 230 HP Subaru SVX powered 87 Westy.
