Hi Ray
Looks like you've been busy.?
Do you know what their ratings will be regarding: Wet Weather braking?; Noise?; Economy?
The tread certainly looks effective in terms of off road use. Do you know how they are likely to ware?, and how abuse resistant they will be for off-road use?
What sizes will you be offering them in?
I have currently have spacers on my wheels 25mm front and 30mm rear so can go for a slightly larger rim with hopefully no ill effects regards ‘rubbing’....currently I have 215/65/16 tyres and would like to go slightly larger...my current alloys look to be 6.5 inch width so I’ll need/want to go maybe an inch or so wider on the rim to 7.5/8 inches so I can get up to a 235 tyre with the higher profile sidewall for the ‘swamper’ look.....
whoop i got the pic up finallyhi GJH sorry been busy to get back to you how did you get on just saw your post i love my look with the 16 x 65s on the van it looks jacked up already with the bigger wheel arch gap and i wont fit spacers to keep the mud under the arches not up the side of my van handles a treat too very pleased and the BFGs look awsome too
they are 50 /50 winter summer and not noisy i got them sent down by 4 x 4 tyres .co.uk all the specs are on their site i ll get a pic over later can load it from work regards Nick
hi Sabre finally got a pic up sorry it took so longHi @Mud Digger , I'd be interested in a pic as this sounds like the look im heading for once I get through the current tyres; I've just had my steels powder coated. Great to hear that the tyres hold well on the road.
Cheers
No worries @Mud Digger , looks great.
What size tyres are they?
Nice I’d lose the trims thought think they look miles bettter with the steels
Thanks very much first off! There more information here than I thought I’d get back, so really appreciate the insights.
I’ve a T28 150DSG FWD van, that has now been converted to a camper with Hilo roof/Uber Flux sliding RIB and Evo furniture package.
I’ll need to take sometime to review all this great information and work out what’s the best route for me. As I said, I’ve the original wheels in the garage and thought why not use these, rather than going for new wheels as well as tyres.
I like the look of this van below, which looks to me, like it’s using the 16” Highline alloys. I don’t intend to lift the van, as it’s mainly going to be for winter conditions etc.

Think I need to work out what tyre/size/spacer combination I’d needed etc as I want to ensure I have a safe package, that will not only give the look, but be up to the job![]()
