Subject:      Tires for 14 and 15 in wheels - What fits?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

What non-standard sizes of tires have been successfully used on the 2WD Vanagon? My MXL's are getting thin and I am shopping for something larger with adequate load rating and no clearance problems. As we all know, there is a limited selection of 14" tires that are appropriate so I'm thinking about SA 15" wheels and larger tires to lower my I-4 engine rpm and I don't want to have clearance problems. What have people used that they like? And just for fun, what is the biggest thing that will fit either 14 or 15" wheels?

Thanks.
