You know, its funny, until Derek pointed out to me I didn't realize the 14" version of this tire was "technically" of insufficient load rating (95, instead of 97). Like him, however, I have no qualms recommending it on Vanagons. This is one good tire. I used to have it on my Syncro Westy (the 14" one that is). I now use the 215/75R15 version (which has a sufficient load rating.) And can't recommend this tire enough. Excellent in snow. Good on highway and off road use. About the only place it begins to have any alternatives to choose from is in muddy terrain, but that's what winches are for right? For you 2 wheel folks, it's still a good tire choice as far as I'm concerned.
