swamper

Hi again I’m wondering which way to go on my new T6 4 motion. Most of the time will be on smooth roads but I have a genuine need for some steep, slippery, wet and slightly off road use. Go Swamper (noisy ride?), dropped suspension (need air for those occasions off road), or standard ride height...

How do you carrier your over sized spare wheel I am looking for a rear carrier like like the HESS Automobile carrier system but I can't get hold of the bike rack as a starting point HESS Wheel carrier system I was looking at the over sized under wheel carrier but want to fit LPG tank in its...

I’m considering buying a set of 18” swamper wheels from THQ and fitting on my LWB T6. Any one on here tried this combo, and what tyre size. Any advise appreciated

Swamper 17" Fuel Zephyr alloys running non-swamper Goodyear 225/55/17s tyres This look is like marmite, you either like it or hate it!....personally I'm liking it and comfort wise, it's so good!

Hi all Im searching for some alternatives to my 16" steels... Im really surprised the only 16" option (other than steel wheels ) i can find is .... Gojo modular wheel 16x8 GOJOS Black Modular 5x120 ET-25 | Tyres Direct or these https://www.offquattro.com/cerchi-rbs01-bead-lock-5x120/ for 17"...

The time has come to move on from the Zephyr's, these are a fantastic wheel and look great but I fancy a change. Only covered about 1500 miles since fitting in January. They are fitted with 225 60 17 103 Cooper Discoverer ATT tyres. These fit fine on vans as low as mine (80mm) would probably be...

I have for sale my swamper wheel and tyre set-up. Purchased from Volkstrek just after Christmas, they have been fantastic in the recent bad weather, deep snow etc though have never been used off road. Only reason for sale is that I am starting to do lots of motorway mileage for work, so looking...

I am about to buy a set of Fuel Zephyrs for my T6.1 Shuttle running on 235/65/17 and as far as I am aware no one is yet able to tweak the calibration on the 6.1 software to correct the speedo, so was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this...

Hi all I have a T6 T32 and having issues getting swamper wheels to fit around the large breaks. I have tried the Wolfrace Sahara with 10mm spacers (to get round breaks) with 245/65/17 BFGs and the set up doesn’t work. Tyres sit outside wheel arch and rub the wheel arch liner. The van is on...

Just got around to adding a few pics of the new wheels. I have a T32 that gets a lot of abuse for work and spends it's life being bumped up curbs and driven in fields, so the 20" alloys had to go. I looked at all options and every steel possibility available and finally settled on these for...

Hi Everyone, I'm considering going down the swamper route but ideally need to still be below 2 metres to get into basement car parks. Can any members enlighten me on their vans overall height after going swamper? I'm looking at 225 65 17 BF Goodrich KO2's with standard suspension but would also...

I want to raise my van by around 25mm-35mm. Its a T32 which I know is oversprung unless loaded causing the harsh ride. I would like to kill two birds with one stone by fitting a spring kit and maybe a set or uprated ARB's and getting a softer ride but have read that some spring kits are not only...

Saw a thread on the FB page showing a van with 17" Davenport's powdercoated black with BFG's on, 225/65/17 I believe. I have a T32 Kombi T6 with Davenport's and really love the look of his... can any tyre gurus tell me if it's a good / bad idea to go this route? TIA

At long last, beefed up the look of my van, with “swamper” look. The original tyres will need replacing in a couple of thousand miles (c40000miles), and I have been fed up with my rattling van with its original suspension, wheels and tyres. Dan at Simply Surf Bus was brilliant, and took time...

Admittedly the quality of roads in North East Somerset is shocking, and my van is a van with original van tyres, but the noisy ride and rattling SCA roof means that sometimes people can’t hear me on the hands free phone. Will swamping it with new shocks, smaller wheels and big doughnut tyres transfo

Hi Everyone. Before I risk not getting a wave from a fellow VDub when on the road, what are anyone's thoughts on a Swamper-Look for a Non 4-Motion Van? Or is it best kept for a 4-Motion? I've a modified Jeep and so the temptation is there. ;) Cheers All!

Hi all, just wanted to share (while we wait to get back on the road quite literally), our latest addition to our swamper wheel selection. The ultimate 17'' all terrain wheel specially designed for the VW T5, T6 and T6.1 German made and TUV approved. Any questions please ask. 17" Twin...
