There is a pic in the Vanfest pics thread in general but I dont know how to move it here :(

ere we go think this is your one looking good wish I'd paid more attention now do the wheels go on easy enough without messing about with jacks on the spring plates etc...

On me 73 bay I have the same wheels, as it is an auto I wanted to keep the same rolling radius and the speedo accurate. On the front I have Piralli P4 Extra load 185/65/15 load rating 92 ( same width as standard to keep the steering not too heavy) On the rear I have Continental Vanco 195/70/15 Load rating 104


ere we go

How much have you lowered the front / back also??

They are tight in the rear arches but bolt straight on front and rear

Shame I didn't park a yard further back :lol:

:lol: just been loking through my photos....

Cheers for your help Pye and dubudubz hope to order some tyres tommorow
 
I assume the pic is of Wallys van? I cant see pics at work. Edit - I can see now, and it is!

His rears are 195/65x15 and the fronts are 165/65x15 you'll have more rear clearance than him as you'll have a flared arch and the 112 pcd is stuff isnt meant to be on his van from factory ;) The offset on the SSP Fuchs is generous though.

I ha(d)ve 195/70x15 on the back, commercials, they are expensive new so would suggest the 195/65 x 15s really.

Front wise the 185/65x15 is an all rounder if youre not going too low ... Wally went for the smaller/thinner as he intends going an inch or so lower in the nearish future.

Load ratings? Theyll all be fine.

Cheers Clem thanks for confiming am going with either 195 x 65 x 15 / poss 195 x 70 x 15 on the back and then 185 x 65 x 15 on the front as will probably only mildly lower on the front to start with, then see how we go..... Was planning to get the tyres on asap then checked the bank and it seems I went on a larger spending spree at Van Fest then i'd first realised :lol: Anyway plenty of bits to fit and things to crack on with and the wheels will be on soon...
