Hi guys
I have searched all over here but don’t seem to get the answers I need.
So
Ok I’m having trouble with my van and need anybody with the same van to give me a help or clues as to what pressures they are running. Or indeed if they have moved from this wheel and tire size to a more comfortable stable ride.
I just want a comfortable none crashy ride. The van has to be useable everyday and mounting Kurb happy as I do the school run and live in the sticks. I’m not into the low rider look just need a fully versatile van.
The van is a 2018 T32 Kombi 4 motion DSG swb so is a heavy van as standard compared to a standard T32. Sound deading/carpeted and rear bulk head fitted, that’s it. So doesn’t carry much.
It’s fitted with H&R coilovers so I don’t get any tyre rubbing at all and they are on the soft setting on front shockers as backs are none adjustable.
I also have front and rear H&R roll bars. Decent height of about 20mm in arch’s. So very similar in looks to a standard van dropped on H&R springs.
Fitted with Transport HQ’s Navis 20” 9J rims with a eye of 42 fitted to
So
I tried the 36 psi all around which was again recommended by another fitter on here. The van seems to spend all its time bouncing and re bounding on the road. Like the tyres are under inflated..steering feels better but so bouncy.
So
I’m now experimenting with different front and rear pressures.
I’m running 38 psi rear at moment and 40 psi front but again seems bouncy.
There’s lots of guys offering advice on the T32 but the van is very heavy compared to a standard T32 being 4 motion and DSG.
Is there any guys with the same van or knowledge to help me?
What pressure or setups have you guys found that works? Or have you kicked the 20’s and moved back to 18’s? If so what tyre sizes and setups have you found that worked?
Thanks in advance guys.

Guys who supplied wheels recommended tyre pressures of 40-42 psi. I found the 42 psi pressure to be very harsh and the steering was so light it feels dangerous.
