    All terrain tyres - recommendations and pictures

    If there is one aspect of T6 ownership I am guilty of "over thinking" its wheels and tyres; I'm OK with suspension as mine came with a 20mm drop and DCC, so the suspension is excellent, even by most cars standards imo. So I've gone from a committed 17" man, to now an 18" modern man. For the...

    Amarok 18” 7.5J Steelie - Tyre Sizes

    Thank you for they I didn’t think they would work but wasn’t sure. There is a set for sale on here that I liked but I couldn’t afford to replace the tyres as well. Cheers

    Another Winter Tyre Question !

    for my T6 4mo. 235/60/17 Nokian Weatherproof SUV : Rating 98% its not technical but hey!!! Leave them on all year round, looks like they will do 40k+ miles with 3mm still remaining. Brilliant in all conditions for a van, and pretty bloody good off-road as well. the 204Bi TDI with Dynamic...

    AT 235/55/18 - does the extra sidewall cause issues?

    Thanks. Ours is 204 DSG. I might just go for the Nokians Weatherproofs in the correct size but they’re £45 more a corner than the General Snow Grabbers that I fancied that only come in the 55 profile on r18. Also worried that the extra 12mm will get the Cali too close for comfort to 2m barriers.

    Confusion

    VW fit 235/50 to 18" wheels. I think 255/60 might be a bit big. Not sure what the Amorok wheel offset is.

    4Motion or 2WD with winter-tyres?

    But which Nokian for an 18” The 245/45 R18 is only rated 100. I think minimum rating for a Cali Oceanis 103 load index

    Winter Tyres?

    1). yep they will fit perfectly, but you really should consider wheel spacers; hubcentric; TUV approved; HR+ are some of the best but there are others; consider 25mm spacers on all 4 wheels, you could go slightly larger on the rear wheels say 35mm each side if you are really going for it...

    Its At This Moment.....

    @chriscroft - As I'm in a T30, any reason not to go with the standard Nokians (i.e. not SUV) which I can get in the correct size (235/55/17 103) for my van... Or would you still suggest the SUV version (235 / 60/ 17)? I'm already running 20s on summer wheels, so already have a 5% oversize at the...

    16” Alloys With All Terrain Tyres?

    Hello I don't think the 17 coopers AT3 are available in 235/60/17 now, and I'm not sure they will be again. These coopers are a great tyre imo for a T6, just the right balance and good in colder weather/ice etc. Just no good for a T32 as the loadings not enough. Are you 2wd or 4wd...

    255/55/18 rubbed like hell on my standard suspension t32...not so much on lock (although It still rubbed) but when the suspension was compressed. Biggest in could get to work in all situations is 235/60. I always use General Grabber AT3s

    All-Season Tyre recommendations

    235/45/17 is a very small tyre for a T6 and not standard at all, did you buy it with them on? What's the load rating? Usually you cannot get the load rating you need in the standard climate+, but the 235/55/17 climate+ does have a 103 rating I think. I would think the SUV spec tyre is most...

    All-Season Tyre recommendations

    Everything I can see online suggests that 235's are fine on 8.5" rims; some suggest you can go as narrow as 225's. I think because 50 aspect ratio gives a reasonably deep side wall depth, it allows more compensation in wheel width. It should be absolutely fine. 255/55/18's fit fine, you may...

    T32 Wheel Options.

    Hi, The label on the door pillar gives you the options that would have been available direct from VW at the time the van was built and covers all of the factory fit wheel options that could have been fitted. You don't need to worry about this for insurance purposes, there is no problem with you...

    Be carful using a 255/55. I tried one just to see How they scrubbed and it was an interesting process. Without spacer they only scrubbed on over steer and with spacer, no scrub. Then we noticed that the suspension travel when compressed on full lock did scrub even with a spacer. Bear this in...

    Filling the wheel arch ....

    so my choice is down 20mm on suspension, up 10mm on tyre radius. Net effect 30mm less gap on wheels arches; but only 10mm less ground clearance; add 25mm spacers; and with 235/60/17 a really good ride, and pothole proof(ish)

    Its At This Moment.....

    I'm Weatherproof SUV 235/60/17 which is about 3.5% oversized (lifts the van by about 11mm) You can get them 235/55/18, and I think that's a perfect size imo. 255/55/18 are 7.5 % oversized (lift the van by 25mm - over standard 235/55/17) It is a biggish decision imo to go that big; yo will notice...
