Within the scope of your question it really doesn't matter what you
USE the vehicle for. It happens to be a LIGHT TRUCK and requires
tires having an appropriate rating, especially with regard to side-
wall stiffness. Most shops will try to sell a wholly inappropriate
tire rated for an SUV or whatever. With the wrong side-wall rating
the VW gets blown around like a willow in the wind.
