Fit some town and country tyres to the front wheels, this will give you plenty of grip, or go to a scrappy and get a pare of steel wheels the same size and get them fitted to them then when you go away just change the fronts,

To revers just lift the clutch gently without the accelerator and the engine power should be sufficient to push the van back, only use the acceleration if required but with ballet shoes on

Think you'll find that reverse gear is closer to first than second.

I am talking about a normal car and not someone who always has to use the low box in their defender every time they have to do a bit of reversing
