AHHHHH! I went through this once on my '72 Westy but it seems I must do it again for my '86 Westy! Trying to decide what is best. What is the best tire SIZE (what are you'alls experiences)- for a Vanagon!? Personally I prefer something tall to keep RPMs down on the highway but I don't want a tire that has a ton of tread that creates a lot of rolling resistance. At the same time I don't want to slide around in the rain on bicycle tires! What is the best Brand and Type for a Vanagon? I put the Yoko Y356s on my '72 Westy and loved them. Iwas going back to those for my '86 Westy but now I wonder if they are okay for the bigger van!? One recent message said that the 195/70 (I think) was the wrong tire for the Vanagon - WHy is that? Thanks, ERic
