If you want to use it in the winter I would say four seasons or winter tyres, make sure the load rating is high enough and then pick a decent name, I fitted some Falkens to our last van they were a lump cheaper than my usual Continentals but they were good.

What size are you needing, and whereabouts are you?

I'm about to upgrade from 15" to 16", so my 215/70 15 Michelin agilis will be available, fronts are only a year old, rears a little older

General Eurovan 365 all season tyres - one tyre does it all especially if you travel to European countries that insist on winter tyres

Worth looking at EU Tyre Labels for Noise, Economy & Grip

Remember, that each tyre size could have a different rating...

I`m still on the Conti`s which where fitted when purchased. Breed of tyre IMV, less important than Load/Speed And I favour Camper Tyres, But Many do not.

Totally agree something i made sure replacing my Conti camper tyres that were on my van with the Hankook Vantra. Vantras had a higher load rating. I use my van fairly regularly so it isnt standing around for months at a time

Been running on Continental Vanco Winter 2 for years all year round, only problem I ever had was a screw through the tread in Morocco - repaired by a local and lasted until time to change. When it's time Kwikfit usually have the best deals. Everybody has their own favourites but I'm sticking to what I know and am happy with them - the few quid difference, if ever there is, doesn't really bother me over 2/3 years use.
In the end tyres have to comply with manufacturing regulations.
