I have the altimax rt's 205/70/14r on a 7 passenger tin top. They are more than fine tires for the van. It feels sure footed and they do help in crosswind in comparison to the previous Michelin 185/70/14 tires that were discontinued prior to the altimax. 

I can speak to these since I have actually used them. I sad to see that they are getting the ax. 

Oh RT = road touring :)
