Sorry to be boring BUT may one also humbly point out the weight issue. The standard tyres are 8 ply and 'commercial', a ~ 2 Tonne van needs the appropriately strong rubbers.

It's good advice re the insurance Co. too .... don't give em any excuse to dump you should the worst occur :(

They need to have a load rating of 94 or above to be ok for a t3, several car tyres exceed this but when the profile comes down so does the load rating.

the hankooks i was looking at are 104 weight rated 'R' speed [106mph]
Toyo's were 106 'S' [112mph] so both well up to the task.
