Subject:      Tire recommends for 15" rims for 2 wheel drive '91 Westy
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed

Hi guys/gals with 15" rims on a 2 wheel drive Vanagon: Who has tires that they can highly recommend? I am leaning towards the Agillis just because that's what's offered at Van Cafe, seems to be popular and seems to be legal option regarding load rating for our heavy Vans. Other options seem to be the Michelin MTX, & Nokian Hakkapalita.

The last thing I want is to be investigated by Transport Canada or the TSB if ever involved in an accident and being told that "your tires are not approved for your type of vehicle Son..." (Thus my reason to stay away from the HydroEdge).

Has anyone out there tried different rubber on a 15" rim and had better/worse results/handling/wear/etc...?

Thanks in advance for any advice, Sincerely,

Trevor Reynolds

"SEN" '91 GL 2Wheel drive, AT, Westy.
