Hi Folks, Please forgive me if this is a silly question. I've jumped on the VW camper bandwagon and decided to purchase an Ex AA van for a conversion. The van im getting is a T6 67 plate (T32) has the standard wheels (assume 15in) and i wanted to know if i could replace these with 18in wheels...

...I make a list for your max used speed. I use a better system for speed, looked off from C- and truckt-tyres. Rule of tumb , for every 10 kmph/ 6.3 mph different speed then reference, 1 loadindex step different. Higher speed》lower loadindex Lower speed》 higher loadindex. Tyre Pressures...

Thanks all your replies. I wondered if the ride might be a bit harsh/crashy on 255/45/18 ? My velle is on 235/55/17 at present which seems ok. Also maybe slightly better fuel consumption on the 235 than 255 ? Anyone have any info on my TPMS question?

...was over by 5% or so. The ride quality is significantly better, which I think is due to the tyre quality. Grip and steering much more precise. Should be though as those tyres were eyewateringly expensive (for me). (The van came with SuperMetal 18 rims & 255/45/18 Tyres which were dreadful)

Here is a tyre plate sticker from a Cali for info: And one from a T28: Both have pressures for 255/45 18.

It's probably sat a bit high now - was previously on some 20" calibres which I was just crashing around on. Either the drop to 18s or the better tyres - its a far better ride. I like the matt black look more than I thought as you can still see the wheel, where as I think some gloss ones you can't.

Stx drop circa 60mm whether that is low enough is personal preference. 255 45 18 are typically 103 rated for a t32 hence a lot of members have them. What load rating are your 245 45 18 tyres and what load capacity is your van?

If you go 18” consider 235/55 tyres. They make a nicer and smoother ride compared to oem 255/45/18, they are cheaper and 104H load.

Nice wheels! where did you buy them from? yes OEM size for 18's is 255/45/18. although people have also fitted 235/50/18 and 235/55/18, do a search on the forum for more info. Main thing to ensure is that you get the correct load rated tyres for your van.

One more question. Do you have adaptive cruise control? Does it work fine with different tyre size?

...fit inside in the wheel arch ok? Also tyre wise I can’t make up my mind whether to go for Michelin CrossClimate 2 tyres in 235/55/18 or 255/45/18 size? I would appreciate any opinions/advice on the above sizes. Oh, and will I have any problems with the TPMS system if I change wheels and...

I went for the 255/45/18 Michelin Cross Climate on the Tolucas - very happy with the look

I tested mine yesterday as I'm going to a larger 235/55/18 friday from 255/45/18 and wanted to know the difference. 28 at indicated 30 37 at indicated 40 67 at indicated 70 Interesting to see what new ones will be.

I'm still looking for tyres for mine , on wolfrace site they offer 255/45 R18 as a tyre package and it states on several sites 255 is the max an 8.5j wheel will take. I was going 245 just incase but then that's only 100 load rating the 255 is 103 nearer to the sticker on my door shut...

Only 40psi max! That sounds rather low, even for a laden car or SUV let alone a van. My Conti All Seasons of the same size and load rating have a max of 51psi on the side so comfortably covers the VW recommended range. Are they def 103 rated?

Considering going for a set of these...anyone want to guess at the tyre size fitted to the one in the pics? I'm running Bilstein B6 and Eibach springs wondering if I could get away with squeezing a 235/55 on, or stick to 255/45...
