Cheers, 20inch VW trident with the blue edge. Not my first choice but the van is an ex demo so the stealer speced them amongst other toys!

Yeah I could leave the blue stripe, but like the trident style, functional and look good
Is that already lowered some?
Yeah I got the dealer to do it with the VW lowering springs as I just wanted it abit lower and will
chnage the wheels at some point I am pleased as it doesn’t mess with the warranty
I think that's what I'm looking for. A conservative drop on reliable springs.Yeah I got the dealer to do it with the VW lowering springs as I just wanted it abit lower and will

How's the ride? I'm in a T32 and it's rough! I need to soften this up.
Can I ask how much it cost?
I think from memory about £400. I am the same as you just wanted it abit lower. I still find the ride abit odd to be honest I think it must be the big sidewall tyres. Feels very bouncy/swayey if that doesn’t sound to wierd.
Mine has the vw lowering springs (30mm I think) from new sitting on 20inch wheels. Not too much roll in bends but boy does it crash and bang on anything but smooth tarmac. Will definitely be looking at other options when the warranty expires!
Thanks that’s interesting as at the moment I don’t find that to be the case maybe its the massive 17s I am running

Finally got the van sign written!
Upgrade one in the bag! Running bars. It was quite a job on mine with the plastic trim and webasto installed but all worked out well
From todays roadtrip.
Good Times!

Yes Bentley replicas
Upgrade two complete. Its a pricey upgrade but so worth it on a new van that I am keeping forever

Yes mate, I got it from vantech as no one else had the upper and lower in Gloss black grills in stock.
fairly easy to remove, followed a good YouTube video from transporter hq. The video shows tools needed and how to fit badged and non badged grills. Only fiddly bit is trying to clip the new grills into the bumper again.

Looks really smart.
I am currently on new wheel hunt and I am reading a lot about the 20s make the ride horrendous.
Personally I feel the current wheels and ride is really bad. Does anyone have any advise or experience?
Thanks all,

Thanks all,
I run my van on 20s with factory suspension and ride height and find the ride ok..I swapped from a polo GTI to my T6 and understand that I now drive a van..
