        If he's looking for relaxed highway CRUISING, using taller tires
        would affect ALL gears, not just 4th... Depending on how much the
        taller tires would affect the final drive ratio they might also
        destroy whatever hill climbing ability his Vanagon had.

        With taller tires (or 15" wheels and tire combination) a relaxed
        cruiser would be a relaxed hill climber too...:-(

   You can't depend on your judgement when your imagination is out of focus.
