[FC] TIRE SIZES on rampy

[Diane and Bob Galli]

   Tim,
  If you are looking for load ratings and hauling stuff, the tires on the
back of my UltraVan are 205/75/14 XCA.  They are Michelin tires, rated at
2250 lbs@62PSI each. Don't know what to tell you about the wheels, except
they appear to be the wrong offset. On Paolo's Greenbrier, he is using
215/70/14, and there is at least an inch clearance to the fender. I am sure
Greenbriers are the same as Rampsides.
       Bob
