Sorry I came in late but my Corvan had, when I bought it, 215-60R14s on
front and 245-60R14s on the rear.  Mounted on steel Chevy rally rims.
I can say without hesitation that this is the wrooooong setup for the
street!
The van is rides much better on 195-75R14s with little loss in handling.  I
may go with 205-70s if I can find a name brand set on sale soon.
