[VB] [T2] 15" TIres

[C. Dreike]

Here is The Samba thread on 15" radials. Seems there is also a thread 
on 15" bias ply tires.

Interesting read. The NEXEN SV820 seems to be the winner. Too bad they 
went out of production now 2 years ago. Sounds like the tires may be 
available from Tires-easy.com per a Feb. 2014 post. Looks like these 
may be the very last LT tires that would fit our 15" wheels.  Next 
choice is the P205/75R15 series tires available from multiple sources.

"Nexen SV820 LT195R15" 8 ply "D" rated radials from Tire-easy up in 
Vancouver."

I wonder if you could approach someone like cooper or (who makes those 
whitewalls) and asked about, say, a hundred LT (or similar) white 
walls with perfect specs ….
