This is why I don't like the 15 inch wheel size. For Syncros I like the 215/65/16 or 235/60-16. 27 inch diameter. For 2WD I stay with 225/60-16. Due to availability of American Racing 17 inch wheels I have also been using 225/55-17 for 2WD and 235/55-17 for Syncros. These sizes are all available in extra load rated versions. Dennis

This would work on a 2WD Vanagon. I have Syncro Westfalia with an ABA block conversion. I need a bit more load rating and bite. :-) I think the Nokian WR C3 might work, although they are directional. The WRC Van tires I currently have are excellent 4-season performers, even in hot GA summers. They are quiet and have a great ride. Did I mention quiet? They are that good.
