Folks,
I have a 2018 t6 highline originally factory built on 16” rims.
I have upgraded the wheels to 20” and also the front discs and callipers to 340mm.I’ve been told the 16” spare will not fit now.
question does anyone know if the spare wheel carrier will accept a 17” rim shod with with a...
No, the will they fit site is slightly confusing in the way it presents that data, but it means that theoretically, when travelling at 60mph your speedo would display 52.
That isn’t accurate for 2 reasons though. you haven’t used your Devonport size as a comparison and as has already been said...
It wont take a 255/55/18 general Grabber AT3.
Although on the ramp it fits on the hub, goes round, doesn't scrub on lock....it scrubs on lock when the suspension is compressed.
A 235/60 just manages with no scrubbing what so ever.
Mine isn't lowered and no rubbing. The ultimate test is to compress the front suspension by slowly driving up a kerb with 1 wheel... on full lock for 1 wheel rotation....
Gillyg, Thanks that makes it seem back to front..... which is why a picture paints......
I had it my head that the 255 was the one to go for as it was bigger, and now i know why the 235 are more popular so thanks again, Just to add even more confusion, i've swayed from the GG AT3 towards...
...to check is load rating, the GG are fine for all T6's some tyres have 100 or similar load ratings, can be too low for some T6.
I've run 235/60/18 (or similar), and so long as you aren't too low, and maybe with some spacers they will fit. Even more choices with 255/55/18; they look great.But...
235/60/18 are just too big for me in terms of gearing/drivability/if you have lowered suspension etc, for a normal T6.
OK, if you have had a series of off-road enhancements carried out such as suspension lifts; gearing changes etc. imo
Hi Michelin do a 235/60/18 crosslimate + at Costco for 133.78 but they do deals like any other place. They had Goodyear vector 4seasons too. Didn't see the price.
I was originally looking at the 235 55 18 grabbers which I know will defo fit, but there is also a 2356018 that’s 12 mm bigger :sneaky:
Does anyone know if they will rub
Ok this has been done to death in the past i am, sure and this is quite a controversial topic because the H&R springs are all rated for TUV purposes and the weights of the van. I ll try to explain this better because we dont recognise TUV standards in UK ( I wish we did as it would...
I'm running 235/55/18 tyres now (swapped from 235/60/17), I got 40k+ miles out of my last set (with 3mm tread depth still left). Nokian weatherproof SUV. I'm very impressed with them all year round. If I had rotated properly would have got even more milage. About £115 each plus fitting. But I...
Evening Bud,
Im not 100% sure if anyone has a mathematical formula that would work your question out but i have run both 235/55/18 and 235/60/18 AT3's. All standard ride height and all turned and compressed with no scrubbing at all.
Sorry i cant answer the question fully.
ditto, and upgrade tyres one size from 235/55/17 to 235/60/17.
I've got some 18" Amarok alloy wheels in the garage (they came of our own Amarok); I keep thinking about getting the Amaroks re coated with "Smoked/Shadow Chrome";
But I also keep looking at Palmerston; either way 235/55/18 Nokian...
