That's the spirit - you're goona fit in nicely here.
Welcome to us all @Janner152 , beautiful van! Lovely set of Velare VLR07'S there, be careful if you have 35 profile tyres, I've had 2 Velares crack before going for a slightly larger profile tyre. Woodstock do some great conversions, any photos of the inside? Not that we are nosey obviously!
Couple here, went for real wood work tops, blue theme. Will double check tyres, Chris commented yesterday that it had Range Rover tyres fitted and needed lower profile. It’s got 275/40’s
I wonder if you have staggered wheels on it? Ask our Chris what wheels it has. 275's on the front are a bit too wide, especially on an 8.5 wheel. On the back fine. A local suspension chap told me to go 245/45 on the fronts, 275/40 on the back. I have 8.5/10 staggered wheels, there's so much advice on here regarding wheels and tyres! I picked mine up with 275/35 tyres, it was those that I had 2 cracked wheels with, ever since Michelin CC2's on the 245/275 combo, no issues.
Hello everyone and thanks @Pauly for the message. Sorry it took longer than needed.
This is Snaporaz, I have been dreaming of campervan life (will start with holidays for the time being) for some time. After much discussing and getting lost in what, when, if, and any further distractions, my partner and I decided to get a van. We went for a VW T6 LWB as we decided the extra money would be well spent and to do the conversion ourselves from scratch.
We just got our van and I managed to remove all the racks bolted and riveted in the back. We have started doing research, we have the idea of the layout, but I believe it will be a long, yet rewarding journey. I am sure I will be able to get inspiration and support on this forum.
Thanks in advance for the support I will find to all those that came before and shared their experiences and useful information, as well as the support I might receive

Whoa there guys - I think you're both forgetting the (almost) mandatory pics of your vans. Being nosy, we do like van pics around here, besides which, we need to ensure you haven't committed the ultimate faux pas and bought a Transit by mistake.
Uh, cardinal sun right there… best I get that sorted right now.Whoa there guys - I think you're both forgetting the (almost) mandatory pics of your vans.

Welcome to the madhouse.
Great to have you here Matt! You'll be taking out membership next! The most reasonable £12.99 a year you will ever spend on the van! Then the real spending can commence! Welcome indeed!
Already did it!
Buon giorno Mauro. Welcome to the group.
A nice van in a nice part of the world.
Don't worry about your English, it's better than our Italian.

It would be a great pleasure, maybe in spring or better summer, so that with an hour and a half of travel you can also reach Liguria and go for a swimWelcome!
Turin? I think you should arrange a Forum meet up!
