what kind of tire or tire size,  is that ?
It doesn't even have 'R' in the size #, indicating 'radial'
185/80 I could see for a tire size/ aspect ratio too.....
but 185/00 ........no comprende senior.
185 R 14C in C load rating is a fine tire on a vanagon with 14 inch wheels.
.
there are also 185 R14C that are really D load rating. I consider them a bit
stiff, but a set of four works nicely.  You can tell the two apart by the
max load in lbs, and the max tire pressure cold.  Often a 55 psi max is a C
load rating, and a 65 psi max is a D laod rating.

if you see 185/80 R 14  ......or 185/80 or 185/78 ..........those are the
same as a plain 185 where the aspect ratio isn't stated, if that makes
sense.
