    Big brakes upgrade

    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...

    Falken Wildpeak on 17 or 18" ?

    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.

    Leighton Front End - swamper style?

    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...

    All-Season Tyre recommendations

    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...

    t32 hard suspension - pot hole avoidance

    FWIW, I've just fitted 235/65/17's in a 108 (with new coilovers) and the ride is surprisingly supple. I wonder what the relationship is between sidewall depth vs load rating and where thr two almost cancel each other out. Obviously a 35 profile 108 is going to be worse than a 65 profile 108 and...

    Swamper v Caravelle ride height?

    ...believe that only some Caravelles came lowered, possibly just the Executive. Is yours definitely lower than a standard (panel) van? The 235/65/17's will give you about a 23mm ride height gain and close the arch gap by the same amount. The image above still looks to have a decent gap which...

    General Grabber AT3's vs the BFG KO range

    Honestly if I was wanting a more all round, less aggressive tyre than the KO2, it'd be the falken wildpeak at3wa, hands down. As for tyre size, 235/65R17 is 6% bigger than std 235/55R17, and 245/65R17 is 8% bigger. You'd fit both on std height suspension, and 235 on lowered down to 50mm or so.

    Oversize tyres worry

    The 235/65/17 tyre has a rolling circumference that is 6.37% bigger than your existing tyre and your van would ride 23.5 mm higher, this is a significant difference. I would expect that to have a negative effect on performance and fuel economy...

    Found 17" black wheels

    How do you know what width tyre will fit? I am looking more at the swamper look so was thinking 235/65/17 as that seems a popular choice but how do you know they fit this wheel?

    What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

    Making a Davenport with a Falken wild peak 235/65/17 fit in the spare wheel carrier. Drop the rear mount to the lower setting (bend the pin straight (ish) slide it out then adjust then reinsert and rebend. Use the small trolley jack I always keep in the van to give me a hand and see if was...

    Show us your 17s

    Mine is a T6.1 Caravelle on 18” VW alloys but not sure if I can get any 18” BFG’s to fit them - was considering the 17” Davenport’s as the wheels are cheap but look ok. Any suggestions would be welcome as the current Bridgestone tyres are neither any good in the dry or the wet and only last 8k!
