Yes, it will. But this tire steals to much power becuase of
it's large diameter. I just put 2 used MXL's on the front
of my Syncro, (shaft is out for the summer) and I think anyone
who would run these, would realize, Vanagons need just the
right tire, the MXL. This tire was replaced by the MXT and I
and hoping they are at least as good, the MXL. HAving said
this I hope to get a list purchase together and buy a quantity
of say 100. Anyone interested?
