I am looking at replacement tires and while I see that many need a lift kit to go from 14s to 15s I really don't want to raise the coach. OTOH a 205x75x15 LR D tire is common, only about a 1/2" taller (1/4" less wheel well clearance), and a load rating of 2,150 lbs per tire (vs 1870). It also allows 65 psi inflation (my TM has two tire inflation stickers, one for 50 psi and another for 55). AFAIK you are not supposed to inflate a "C" tire over 50 psi.

So the 205x75x15D looks to be a viable and available alternative. Has anyone used this without a lift kit ?
