For Eric, I run 195R13 on original wheels.  Works great for me, but whether
I will be able to get them in the future is problematic.  The tires are
Vredestein, and are "all weather" with the mountain snowflake symbol on the
sidewall, so I run them year round in NE Washington.  I don't drive the
camper a lot in winter, but have on occasion, including on snow and ice.
