​RE: Load Range D Tires on a Westy

I ran Nokian Hakka CS 185R14s for several years,   Load Range D tires, and
I did not find them that stiff to be uncomfortable.  I am running a pretty
heavy '90 Westy (what else can I cram in here? :) ) so that may have made a
difference in feel.  I will say this, my current Nokian Hakka WRC 205/65R
15s are the most comfortable and best riding tires/wheels I've had on two
Westies over almost 20 years.  With a proper wheel alignment The Starwagen
handles far better than it ever has, both tracking and steering.
BTW, if you do want a harsh ride in a Westy just put on the shocks whose
name stands for Kill Your Butt.  Now that IS harsh.​
