My new T6

I've recently bought my first VW van. It's a 2019 T6 (T30) and I'm over the moon with it - except for the ride. It's fitted with some stunning Momo Revenge Anthracite 20 Inch wheels, but I find the ride a bit harsh and, on full lock, they occasionally rub on the inner arch liner. I'm also not keen on the fact that the speedo under-reads.

I've spent the last day or so reading through different threads on optimal wheel tyre combinations and have decided 18 inch wheels might offer a good compromise, but wanted to ask what tyre size I should opt for. I'm primarily interested in ride comfort, so think a decent height sidewall would be good.

Also - if I was to sell the existing wheels and tyres what sort of price should I ask? Wheels are like new, and the tyres probably have about 5.5-6mm tread.

Many thanks.

I have these wheels. When lowered they can occasionally scrub the arches but it's no big deal. Definitely recommend lowering.

Sell for £850 on forum and £950 on market place/eBay

I'd be interested to see what tyre specs you have there. can't quite make it out

Mine are 275/40ZR 20 106W XL
 
Agree that the ride quality is affected mostly by the suspension and not the wheel size.

I'm on 20" wheels with non-standard suspension and the difference is night and day compared to stock on 20" wheels!
 
On the T6 the under-reading speedo can be improved by fairly simple coding with OBDEleven or maybe Carista (I haven't tried with Carista so check if you go down that route. There is a thread on the forum if you do a search.
