[lemonyellow]

was thinking of getting some of these for my camper lets see some photos of campers with them on and what size tyres are being using thanks nik

 

[Jay71]

Here's one of mine. I've got 165/55s up front & 175/60s on the rear...

I'm hoping a few more peps post some pics cos I plan on fitting some once my bus is up n running.

Sorry to hijack this post a bit but can anyone explain what I'm gonna have to order when I get round to it?
The tyres on my bus are not quite standard size , they are big chunky American off road tyres
Some people like them , I don't !
195 / 75 /r14 I think are the correct tyre size - is that correct?
All the Fuchs I seem to come across are for late bays
I'm gonna slightly lower my bus but what tyres and size Fuchs do I need for my 69 westy?

You will need adapters or change you brakes to porsche 5x130. You can get wide 5 fuchs but they is ugly man.

I second Radishs advice, wide 5 Fuchs suck big time

Thanks chaps
Didn't really wonna have to b changing my breaks
What is involved with fitting the adaptors

Sorry mate I haven't ever done it so can't help you there but remember it will increase your track a bit so may or may not cause you issues.

Adapters just bolt on, but your gonna add best part of 20mm to each side, so tyre choice will be slim due to arch clearance. If you're wide five I suggest you pick a different rim or go for a drum swap.

Made me laugh when I saw your user name

I got the rack from Creative Engineering, my 40th birthday present off my fabulous wife ...it was pricey but worth every penny as we can get so much stuff on there...plus I think it's looks the nuts

Thats a nice ride.

Got these on the back of mine yesterday

17's, currently 225x45.s but going to a 55, Bit of mucking about due to lack of room with adjustable spring plates, and going to run 5.5 15's on the front with probably 175 60's.

Great stance, i'm really starting to love the 155/60r15 on the fronts of Bays. Greater load capacity than 165/50r15 and they just seam to tuck in their nicely. Nice work and lets see some more pics of this one

Love fuchs :lol:
165/55/15 on 5,5x15

Love this bus. Something very cool about a panelvan with a window in the slider. 8)

 

[rlepecha]

Early 14" 5.5J's, 195/70 tyres. Bus is about 2" drop I think.
