That's correct...the 370 doesn't come in the 205. I spoke with Yokohama in Dallas and they said it was not available. The only 205 LT I was able to find locally here in Seattle was the Michelin MXL. I have those on my Jetta and they are one stiff loud tire! On top of that, I have found, the rain and snow traction is marginal. I wouldn't recommend them. Chris P.
