Hey Guys, just bought a t6.1 panel van and started doing some bits, i have put on some 17” wheels with 235/65 r17 tyres, i love the look but i think the front needs lowering a bit to level it out. Anyone ever just lowered the front ? Is springs better for me as its a work van. TIA !

...set of tuff torque 17 inch x 8 steel wheels for my t6.1 . I’m going to order some wild peaks to gon on them and it looks like the norm is 235/65/17. I just saw they do them also in 225/65/17 as well, would these run ok with those wheels? I just thought they might run the speed more...

Posts 19,23 & 24 from this thread show you what I did for my spare 245/65/17

Can confirm this - although my passenger side with 245/65 tyres has a few mm clearance - drivers side was rubbing a tiny amount initially but now I've got a few k on the tyres they're clear.

Hi How did it go with the CC2’s ?

What do i need to do to the carrier etc to get a 245/65/17 underneath ? We used to run 235/65/17 and with a bit of lube and brute force we could get that in, but never ever tried the larger wheel. Can someone post a link or details of whats needed ? Thank you !

In the photo they are the the 245/65 x 17 tyres that came with the wheels. I am intending to put 235/55 x 17 tyres on them though. Here in NZ they will fail a warrant of fitness (MOT in UK speak) if tyres are more than 5% bigger than standard.

235 is ideal tbh, 245 is really tight in the rear arches, and really your speedo will also need amending.

Great setup! I’ve been looking at Kato wheel/tyre combos and 245/65/17 seems to be the default. Any benefits of 235?

Second the above been on Falken Wildpeak for nearly 20 months been superb tyres so far. 235/65/17 lowered on coilovers .

I’m running Fuel Zephyrs with Falken Wildpeak AT3 235/65/17 on Koni Definition suspension from @CRS Performance with a 40mm drop.

Wow - that looks really nice Is that on standard suspension? Also, I don’t suppose you have any ‘direct’ side on photographs do you?

I assume you have measured? My LWb shuttle with roof prep, OEM suspension and Falken Wildpeaks 235/65/17 sits at 1.94 (fully loaded and I mean FULLY loaded).

Hi after a bit of info going to change from 20s to 17 steels was going for 235/65/17 rubber on standard height suspension on a T32 van will i need spacers or not lots off info already about but conflicting Many Thanks Simon

With a set of 17” Davenport’s could I fit a set of BFG 225/65/17’s without any lift/modification? Would 235/65/17 or 245/65/17’s fit on the same rims and again without a lift/modification?

Hi, I have a T6.1 and have recently gone from 205 65 16 clatons to 235 65 17 oz rally raids with bfgoodrich tyres. I want a usable spare to carry on a journey if I get a puncture etc. Can anyone advise if fitting a tyre with a slightly smaller diameter make a difference I.e. a 215 60 17...

Cheers pal - what width rims are they running on?

your right. I went from 235/55's to 65's with a lumpyier tread pattern all on 17's. I have a 'normal' 235/65 as a spare and it is smaller (so it fits in the spare space, with a mod on the bracket). Speedo is showing maybe 4~5% under reading. I did put an extra gauge on the dash for this but...

I have 17" 235/65 on GP Steels and they are more 'bouncy' and long legged, but really nice to drive in comparison to std alloys on 235/35 17's. Speedo is just out. I was going to swapi n the summer but never did. This year we have driven to Corfu and back and two other French trips (one in...

I have mine around 47psi general Grabber 235 65 17, it seems somewhere between 45 and 50 is the norm, maybe in winter or off road around 44
