Excellent suggestion but not practical, I'm sticking with the 15" I just bought 
a 2nd set.
Is it true that there are no 6 ply side wall LT tires for 15" ? The closest I 
have found are car tires that have 4 ply...

Excellent suggestion on moving to 14" Bus wheels which are for sure more 
plentiful and therefore cheaper than 15" Bus wheels.
Although, 15" Bus wheels do have 'coolness' factor, I just like the big slots 
on them.

You can put 14 s on your bus , by using 66 -70 wheels .   No one would know the 
difference , except for usins bus freaks .   But with hub caps on it might be

else I have found . I have a set for my 67 westy  . I ran them on a 68  PHAT
