<< I'm not sure which Michelin's you are refering to, but Tirerack, at least, lists the Agilis as a LT tire. >>

I was referring to the reinforced 205/70x14 Michelin tires originally specified for the Vanagon, as an alternative to the standard 185R14 C 6PR which was definitely a light truck tire. The Agilis didn't exist back then.

I believe Michelin's reinforced jobs came standard with the alloy wheels. Their designation (I think) was MXL which was later superceded by the MXT. Neither one, as far as I know, is a light truck tire even though they were rated 97 load index.
