215/65 R16 C 106/104/T Tyres for Multivan

[Silver Caravelle]

Hi all,

Given the various tyre thread discussions over time, I have tried to pull together an updated list for the 16 inch 106/104T load rated tyres. I too will need new tyres within the next 6 months.

My 2008 Muiltivan has OEM Dunlop SPLT 30-6 215/65 R16C 106/104T tyres. These appear to be not available in Australia or a Dunlop equivalent.

This is what I have found today as possible options:

Toyo H08 - 215/65R16 106/104T
Good Year P215/65R16C 106/104T CARGO G26 HIGHWAY tyres
Bridgestone R410 215/65R16C. 106/104T
Bridgestone D693 is AT tyre
Continental Vanco 6 215/65R16C 106/104T
Federal Tyres Australia - 215/65/16 ECOVAN ER01 for around $150 each
Yokohama RY818 215/65R16 106/104T
Hankook Dynapro HP; couldn’t find an exact match only mentions 215/65R16 T XL?
MICHELIN Agilis couldn’t find an exact match only in a 215/65R16C 109 T?
Pirelli Chrono 215/65R16C 109R

Scott

Pirelli sell these here : PIRELLI - CHRONO
not cheap but less then the OEM Agilis 51's I had.

I am running Federals on the front now they seem to be going well for the price had them on the van for about 10,000 k's standing up better than OEM Dunlops

Thanks Tornado, I didn't specifically include the Pirelli's because they seemed a 'heavy duty' at 109T load rating.
Cheers, Scott

Thanks VW Bug. Similarly with the Federals, I thought these also might be a heavy duty (109) compared to the OEM 106/104T load rating.

I thinking my next set will be the Toyo H08 - 215/65R16 106/104T.

No Probs. I actually replaced my OEM Agilis51's with them and to be honest I can't pick the difference.

I use the Goodyear Cargos. Awesome, grippy and not noisy and Commercial rated.

I had them on my previous Van (T4 Caravelle). Yes very good tyres and they certainly wear well.

Hi All,

A lot of good research on here. I'm due for new tyres soon (75K on the original Michelin Agilis), but would like to go to an AT type tread pattern. So far I haven't been able to find a single one in this size that is load rated. Nearest has been Michelin LTX, but the nearest size is 225/75 which is about 55mm larger, and I don't think it would fit in the spare wheel space, as well as possibly having clearance issues, and raising the gearing a bit more than I want. Does any-one have AT pattern tyres fitted (with proper load rating), and what size will go on without these issues?

thanks
