The normal right tire is  185 R14 C - - that's usually on the tire sticker
where you open the driver's door, forward and down a little, where your feet
go.

LT 195/75 R 14 is also a real vanagon tire.
Some late vanagons use  205/70 R 14  T rated.    I like those a lot.  Sports
car like handling. 

Never use any tire with 'P' before the size- that means 'passenger car'
tire..........don't use 'em on a vanagon.
