Subject:Re: Is 2WD 15 inches Wheels Vanagon a Taboo
From:Tom Miller

I just bought a set of 16" wheels from Drew Derek for my 89 2WD Westy and
plan on using 225-60/16 tires from Yokohama with 779 or so revolutions per
mile which is close to the stock 800 and some.  I think it will be the same
height as my existing 14" with 85 series tires so I can get it into my
garage.  Drew has a lot of information on this subject at

information buy is there any 2WD owner using 15 inches wheels or it is only
a Synchro subject ? The fact is that I am not sure that the clearance is the
same so I would like to ear it from a 2WD owner: does it worth it ? What
tire recommendation ?
