18” or 19”?

Ok mate,any chance you could let me know as soon as you get some sort of idea

 

[dubber36]

That'll all depend when Boris lets us out again. I'm working from home, so haven't really got anywhere to go.

 

[dubber36]

I forgot I needed to pick up the click and collect shopping this morning. 38 miles of rural A road and a little bit in town.

 

[tonyteeth]

A bit of freedom then mate at last ,what variation of van do you have

 

[dubber36]

Oh, I'm getting out. I've cycled over 1000 miles in the last 4 weeks. I've got a Caravelle 150 DSG.

Pass. I just left it up to the garage to do what they thought looked right with the new wheels. The alloys are 19” VW Argonite.

It’s taken a while, but managed to get the new Cantara’s on today.
It’s been a struggle - which is an understatement to be honest. It would appear that the last time the sportlines has new tyres fitted, the wheel bolts were over tightened, it has been hell of a job getting them off. Made worse by one that refused to come off - and that one was a locking bolt. Locking adapter/ locating face on bolt totally knackered. Had to result to drilling it off. After about 20 broken drill bits, a pretty well split knuckle, and 5 hours of swearing; we got there.
Brand new bolts and a touch of copper slip on each of them.

what size tyres and alloys are you running? This is the look i'm after, looks great

 

[JasonW]

They'll be 255/45/19.... and if you want the 17" spare the same rolling radius that one would need to be 215/65/17

Thanks for the reply.
Do you know width of tyres, if they’re staggered and the offset? Thanks

How you getting on with those? Any issues with finish etc?
Look good and suit your van, but obviously remind me of the transit customs (not a bad thing). You got any pics closer up?

 

[coullstar]

Yeah all good so far, not done many miles obviously. I like them, they sit nice.
