The original 205/70-14 tires from the factory and as the noted option on the
87 and later door stickers were only 97.

If that's what you want and it works for you - great.
And anyone correct me of course if this is not accurate..
generally a 98S tire is under-ated for a vanagon . Or at least on the light
end of the scale.

oh ..now you say they're 96 S and not as suited as you thought.  Right on .
Glad you caught that.
