I have an 82 Westy running a 1.9AAZ TD
The transmission is a DK
Just purchased 4, 215 x 16" rims from Go-westy
I am looking to install some high load rated tires and am thinking to go with 215/185/16s
This will bring the RPMs to 3000 at 65 MPH

Does anyone know if these taller tires will fit without rubbing?

Thanks

I'm going to move this over to the vanagon fora.

Are you sure of the tire size? I have the 16" Go Westy rims on my Vanagon. I went with a Yokohama 215/65/16 tire. I believe GoWesty likes the 215/60/16 profile better. With the GW rims, I don't know that you can fit much more tire on the van than what I did. Over stock tire size it was good for about 200 -300 rpm.
