That surprises me . . . they're listed on the Michelin website as well as the brochure kept at the counter at my Costco (listed in the OEM section).

Note the only size Agilis is the 205/65R15 size. Is this what you're seeking? If you're looking for 14-inch tires, TireRack now has a new reinforced tire available for vanagons, in 205/75R14 IIRC. You probably know that other 14-inch tires are available from Nokian and www.busdepot.com.

I think you got lucky, as my Costco did not have those tires & said
they were no longer available.

YMMV,
