I put 4 of those on my Westy a few 1000 miles ago, & so far I like them. They are 1 of very few proper 14" tires left to buy out there for vanagon’s, & I have resisted going to bigger rims on that Westy so far! They are much quieter than the All Season Nokians I have run for many years, but are no longer available in 14”, IIRC. YMMV. Mr. BZ > On Aug 12, 2018, at 10:26 AM, Jim.
