<< I'm not sure which Michelin's you are refering to, but Tirerack, at
least, lists the Agilis as a LT tire. >>

   I was referring to the reinforced 205/70x14 Michelin tires originally
specified for the Vanagon, as an alternative to the standard 185R14 C 6PR
which was definitely a light truck tire.  The Agilis didn't exist back
then.

   I believe Michelin's reinforced jobs came standard with the alloy
wheels.  Their designation (I think) was MXL which was later superceded
by the MXT.  Neither one, as far as I know, is a light truck tire even
though they were rated 97 load index.
