Yea I've got an 82 westy, I was looking at those altimax but it seemed too
close to minimum load limit and from what I hear from a few others where the
tread meets the sidewall they have deformed with indentions? Don't know on
the cause or a defect?

This past Friday I had a set of General Altimax RT 205/70R14's mounted,
balanced and installed on my #2 '88GL for $75/ea. That is hard to beat. This
is a  good tire for this van where most driving is 90-95% paved roads. I
wouldn't recommend it for the Westies, however. Nor if  you do a lot of dirt
road driving.
