That was me that said the bit about the tire reviews Larry. I am certain that I sent you reviews of my 195/75-14 Bridgestone Turanza Ts and my 205/65-15 Yokohama Avid HAs' . I still can't find them on the review page.

Andrew,

"Your Vanagon is a car, Larry"

Could you please be more specific as to why you feel the Vanagon is a "Car" and not a "Light Truck" as VW has determined?

"Fit GOOD-quality car tires with suitable load rating"

Please share "specific details on Make & Model of "Reinforced Sidewall" XL or RF Passenger Car Tires that meet or exceed the Vanagon Load Capacity Spec's for this 6000 lb vehicle.

If you have "direct first hand experience" with any of these tires a "Tire Review would be most appreciated and can be submitted here:

http://www.roadhaus.com/Tires/Tire%20Form.htm

"ALL TIRE REVIEWS ARE POSTED" and always have been.

Please review the page for evidence of this at:

good tire,
