The 195/75-14 is almost a perfect replacement size for the original.  The
stock 185's were taller than a 75 series, more like an 80?  I would
consider going to a 205/75 if they have it.

i went to the site to check these tires out and it
said they are not the right size for a vanagon. i only
need two tires (rear) and am currently running
185/?/14, i think it is ok to run different size tires
as long as they are on the same axle,right? would i
encounter any problems running the 195's on the rear
and the 185's on the front???thanks
