Should i be worried about fitting alloys that aren't the correct load rating for the T32?
do people just choose wheels anyway?

If you fit wheels that are not load rated for your vehicle, then you increase the chance of a failure.
If your insurance company investigate an accident and find incorrectly load rated wheels, then they could just walk away, leaving you with all the bills, and you could be prosecuted.

Wheels and tyres have to be 100% correctly rated for the vehicle they are fitted to.

In simple terms:
Yes you should be worried about fitting incorrectly rated alloys.
There are people out there who do fit incorrectly rated wheels to their vans, it’s your choice. However I agree with @Pete C and @BognorMotors as the best option is to stay above the law. It’s not worth the risk.

I have this dilemma now, dealer offering to swap the wheels to the standard 17s or 18s that were on the van originally. Nothing more. T32 with 20" 815KG rated wheels and 106XL tyres.

Its in for an MOT so should theoretically fail?

 

[Pete C]

I doubt a tester will look at wheel ratings.

Some wheel manufacturers don’t show the wheel rating on the wheels, only on the specifications on paper.
