T32 and Minimum Wheel Size

[archersam]

Forgot to mention, the reason I need them is that I’m going to Germany/Austria for Christmas and winter tyres are a legal requirement so trying to do it in the most efficient way possible.

I didn't have them when I went last winter including Austrian ski resort albeit not high up. No issues albeit appreciate I was officially illegal as it applies to visitors et.

I didn't intentionally choose to not have them I just forgot about it as the 6.1 was new to me and my old 5.1 usually had M&S on it all year round.

I got a set of Devonports with winter tyres for a great price for this year that will be going on soon.

Thanks for info all. I have a t32 and I check my spare that is 17” so I need to go 17”

Will probably look for some steels and M&S tyres.

Thanks again.

If you use Facebook keep searching for Devonports you’ll be surprised how cheap some can be and the odd set of winter or m&s turn up.

I’ve now got 12 rims as needed new tyres and was cheaper to buy another set of rims with dleivery miles than it was to buy tyres

Looking at replacing my 20s and go smaller to get better MPG and also a different look.

Will 16in alloys fit my T32?

My spare under the van is a 17in.

If you have “bigger” brakes (and most T32s do) then the 16” wheel won’t fit. You’d be better off going for 17” wheels

@BeardedRocket - post a picture of your front calipers and someone can tell you if 16's fit.
