I concur.
I suggest just go to Van Cafe's site....................
I think there are four Nokian models of tires there , on sale ..
and pick which one is right for your use ..

you know.......................a  great 'real' vanagon tire by a
vanagon-savvy vendor..
what's not to like ? !
I'm pretty sure they're great tires too.
