None at all , maybe your wheels are different offset to mine (et35 iirc) ?
I'm at 70mm with those tyres and no rubbing. My wheels are 8.5J ET 34 (Fuel Zephyr)
My comforser at tyres are not bad.
But will try the wild peaks when worn out.
Only another 45k miles lol
Not OK for a T32. What do you have?
I would double check that because I think they are a T32. I am sure someone in the know will comment
See what the axle weights are on the chassis plate. That's the number that refers to the required load rating.
On this example;
3200 kg = Gross vehicle weight. This is the maximum that the vehicle and everything inside can weigh.
5300 kg = Gross train weight. This is the maximum that the vehicle and trailer/caravan and everything inside them can weigh. This is the manufacturer maximum and may be further limited by your licence, your towbar and/or your trailer/caravan etc.
1 - 1710 kg = Axle 1 maximum
2 - 1720 kg = Axle 2 maximum
For most normal vehicles, the tyre (and wheel) load ratings must, as a minimum, be able to carry half of the highest axle load. In this instance, half of 1720 is 860 kg.
A 102 tyre is only rated to 850 kg so would not be legal on this vehicle. See below, 103 would be the minimum in this instance.

130 mph. 'No way you're faster than that!
While just as Important as load rating and a useful a tool for insurance companies to wiggle out of a claim, speed ratings are a little less strictly enforced. Many winter tyres, for example, have quite low limits, much lower than the vehicle that they're often used on are capable of.
I wouldn't personally take the risk as there are numerous options that will adequately cover any standard T6.
I was also thinking H min. Thank you
Whilst my old BiTDI gets up to 100 pretty rapid I have never been over ;-)
Hi, just looking at your tyre profile, that’s pretty much perfect to me, the right amount of sidewall and sits really well on the wheel.
What width are the wheels please,
Thanks
