Do tyres for the transporter need to be specifically made for a van. I have seen some SUV tyres; Michelin CrossClimate 2 235/65/17 with a load rating of 108. I have a T32 and my last set were dedicated van tyres (continental)
Hi all
Running 20s at the moment on a 30mm drop 20s are not working for us on campsites looking to go 17s with 235/65/17 will these work on a 30mm drop or should i go back to standard running Koni active shock all round working great for us but 20s no no
I am about to do a 18 hour drive across Europe in 2 stints. Leg one non stop Calais to Zurich with an overnight stop then another non stop down the Adriatic coast.
I have a LWB shuttle and it will be running very heavy up near the limit of its 3.2 capacity.
The Falken wildpeaks say don't...
Navis Mac AT 17’ alloys fitted with Falken Wildpeak at3 tyres 235/65/17
Satin black
only a few months old with less than 1500 miles on them
I had these ceramic coated from new so loads easier to keep clean
As new condition
still on the van at the moment but should have my replacement wheels...
Well, went for the Black Rhino Warlords with 235/65/17 wildpeaks, looks great, road noise very acceptable and handling noticeably better than 275/40/r20s so thanks for all of the input.
Hi. I’m after some recommendations for my T32
I’m currently riding with 20” (275/40ZR20) on H&R 40mm springs and love the look, however, hate the ride with the current state of the roads.
I’m looking for recommendations to drop down to 18” but try and keep the look and style of the bigger...
Don’t know what it is with the Kato’s but I think they are the best 17” wheel out there.
I am biased, but they just look the part.
I ended up with some Michelin Agilis Climate Controls. 235/60r17. Load rated at 117.
Will post pics in a month once I’m swapped out the current 18” Conti Winter...
I'm with @Sasquatch on this. My LWB T32 has the standard brakes but, even with larger 235/65/17 tyres I've never felt the brakes were lacking in normal use.
Before we bought a pick up truck for towing duties, we would use the van to tow our horse box. With two horses it could be as much as...
I will give it some tests and observe as I am sure you are right, as I said I dont pay any attention to my speedo reading unless doing things like this as I solely drive off of my Sat Nav speed.
I'm the process of considering a new set of tyres and possibly wheels for my T6 4motion.
Previously on my T5 i had bfg ko2 in 245/65/17 on the Devonports with 20mm spacers. Looked great, the gearing was probably a little too far out for my liking and road performance wasn't great.
I'm ideally...
I don’t have your front end but do have an aftermarket front with lip , lowered on ST-X Coilovers (CRS) with 17” Black Rhino and 235/65/17 Wildpeak AT tyres.
No issues so far anywhere with access although obviously not green laning off-road but happy with forestry type car parks (non tar mac...
