[QUOTE="den, post: 21006, member: 784"] Hi The book says upto 1971 cross ply 7.00 x 14 6 or 8 ply 1971 on radial 185 R 14.C But if you put a 185/75 on a van that should have cross ply tyres top end RPM will be 25% or top end speed down by 25% but on the plus side you get better acceleration , as a cross ply tyre is full profile. The /75 refers to the % of a full profile, if it does not state a profile like the 185 R 14.C, then its around 80 / 82%. I am sure that you know this but some may not. Thanks Den [/QUOTE]
