I like this tire. I agree this size is one of the best compromises. Tire
Rack has refused to sell me this tire for the Vanagon.
The load inflation table for this tire can be found here.

Note that this tire reaches its full load rating at only 36 psi. This makes
it a good candidate for the Syncro as you can run as low as the factory
recommendations for the original 205/70-14XL.
38-42 front and 48 rear should work well.

Subject: New tires and wheels

Just recently put on new tires and wheels. I haven't had much road time on
them so I can't say too much about them. Oh, yes, they are 215/70-15
Yokohama Geloander ATS. I dithered for a long time over tire choice for my
15" alloys, I ended up with a load rating (98) lower than I would like but
the choices in all terrain tires are very limited here in the over all wheel
size I wanted ( ie I didn't want to go as large as 215/75).

Anyhow, the limited driving I have done on them has me happy. Much, much
nicer than my stalwart old Michelin Agilis 81 185/80-14 that I haven been
using as a summer tire. We all know the pros and cons of the Agilis, but boy
they wore like iron and recently really felt like they were made from iron.

The most recent two entries on my blog has the story.
