Well, I guess it's actually only a top 5 list.
Anyway, a search for tires on the tirerack.com website returned the
following results:

Our most popular 185/-14 (in order of popularity) for the 1984 Volkswagen
Vanagon are:

1) Michelin Agilis
Price:$92
Availability: Low Stock
Speed Rating:R
Load Rating:C
Type:Standard Touring

2) Yokohama Y356
Price:$50
Availability: In Stock
Speed Rating:R
Load Rating:C
Type:LT Highway Rib

3) Yokohama Y356
Price:$57
Availability: In Stock
Speed Rating:R
Load Rating:D
Type:LT Highway Rib

4) Michelin MX Reinforced
Price:$73
Availability: In Stock
Speed Rating:R
Load Rating:RF
Type:LT Highway Rib

5) Continental Contact CR21 Reinforced
Price:$46
Availability: Low Stock
Speed Rating:R
Load Rating:RF
Type:All-Season

I have been told that the Continentals
are very good despite there low price.

I would be interested in comments and recomendations
on all of the above tires, particularly the Continentals
Vs the Michelin Agilis.

So, Whats your favorite tire?
One of the above or something else altogether?

Also, any experiences in dealing with tirerack.com
would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Rod.
