Did not see the 195/75R14 on the site.  Did see 195/70R14.  Of course, the 205/70R14 matches the diameter of the Hankooks I currently run more closely than either of those sizes does.  I have read about these tires before, and they are given good reviews.  But, the maximum pressure is low for the camper, which calls for 53 psi rear.  Comments, anyone?
