That's a good suggestion, but I should clarify: While I have both a set of 14" and 15" wheels, the set I don't use will likely go on another van or be sold. So I'd like to stick to one set of tires/wheels for my Syncro. Since this is my dedicated travel-mobile, and any road trip might (if I'm lucky) entail off-highway driving, tires should ideally serve dual purpose.
