Indeed, the last time I needed tires for the Westy I was 2,500 miles
from home.  Was having no success until I called a small shop that
specialized in commercial truck tires.  The guy was operating his
business out of what looked to be a storage unit but he found the tires
and got them shipped in the next a.m.
