Seemed like it's time for tire talk here on the Vanagon list, actually there was a discussion going on on the wetwesties list and this list seemed a better place for it. My Vanagon weighted 3020 pounds the last time I left the dump, that's me and the van as I drive it. For me good tires need to be round, hold air, have tread, fit the wheels I have, not rub and be affordable. That statement ought to be enough to get the discussion started.
