I have been keeping a file on 15" Vanagon tires, with proper load rating, that have been recommended on this list.

I only kept track of a sizes up to 215/75R because that's the largest size that will fit in a modified spare tire carrier.

Sorry ... No 14" or 16" data.

Please take a moment, look at the data and let me know if I'm missing a tire you may be using or if I have one listed that does not meet the load rating requirements.

Once this list is edited I'll post it on the web for all to reference.
