I printed the vanagon.com info about tire sizes, etc.

http://www.hrps.demon.nl/jwbus/T2-tires.htm

 & took it to my local Costco, who earlier had said they could only install
tire sizes approved for the vanagon.  They special ordered my tires in &
installed them, but they were only 195's although 205's would have worked w/
the 2% rule.

FWIW,
