Welcome to the forum - if you are a paid-up member, there's a Fact Sheet in the Member's Area. If not, why not?
This has been discussed loads of times on the forum - just do a search for tyres.

Just to make life easy for a newbie (you have my sympathy trying to use the search engine)...I use Continental Vanco tyres all round to Mazda size spec (different front and rear)....replaced full set afet I'd done 85,000km of uk and europen driving in just over 12 months.

Faultless performance on all terrain from off road and snow to fast motorways,

good luck

Same her, Vanco Continental all round as per Mazda Bongo specs.

CONTINENTAL CT VANCO CONT 2 100T R/F 215/65TR15 T 2 £144.00
CONTINENTAL CT VANCO CONT 2 97T R/F 195/70TR15 T 2 £114.00

You choose your tyre fitter from local depots, I chose National Tyres, the tyres are delivered there and you turn up on the appointed time and the tyres are replaced, balanced and fitted. No hassle.

Goodyear GT2s all round about £260

Diff sizes as Mazda say

Q rating is up to 99mph, officially you should go for at least T (118mph)

I really like Vredestein tyres, have used Sportrac 2 all round on my 270bhp RWD Nissan 200sx for the last year and have been very happy with them; wear, grip and wet weather performance are all top class. They are also quiet and look good. I've run Michelin, Continental and Bridgestone and prefer these by some marign.

For the Bongo something like Hi-Trac is the obvious choice, they've got a nice tread pattern for wet fields and particularly good in the rain

215/65 R 15 96 H £63.80ea from mytyres

195/70/R15 is a weird size though and you may not be able to get Vreds in which case I'd agree with the VancoContact 2, it's a good tyre, £44.60ea at mytyres
