Here you go mate, Aussie multivan (Caravelle) running vw Dakar 18s on stock suspension.
Looks miles better than it did on the stock 16s and we won’t be lowering as we need the clearance for camping and mtb trips. Tyres are 255 45 18 103w.

Thanks all, I’ve been searching for a good few days and I’m swaying more and more towards the sport lines but currently can’t decide between the T5/t6 type as I like them both.

I was in the same situation when I was looking, at the end of the day it all comes down to how much you are willing to spend and what look you are after.

Hi there,

can I ask where you got your Sport Lines from ? Prefer the look of these over the newer version and should be easier to live with given that they aren't diamond cut / polished.

Cheers

Hi there, looking good ! How far have you lowered it and what did you go with (i.e. just springs, coil over, sports shock ...)

I have B14s and ARB. It’s set to the highest at the moment but still sits nice.

T5 sportline 2's on a T6.1 Kombi 4M ...... a perfect combination

I found these wheels locally to me for a fair price so stuck them on for now. They are 18” calibre trek.
