16" Wheel trims that will fit T6

[Jim Rey]

HI Guys.
Can anyone give me a link for some 16" wheels trims to fit steel wheels on my T6. I don't realy want to shelve out over £100 fro volkswagen ones.
Went to Halfords yesterday but they couldn't tell me if the Halfords Atlanta 16" Wheel Trim - Set of 4 (£26 ones) would fit.

Cheers​

Jim

I have a set of the genuine 16" ones lying around somewhere. Bit of lacquer peel here and there.....






Snail, spiders and twigs included....

I'd be 98% confident that any 16" trim would fit. The standard VW ones are terrible quality, brittle and painted with kids water colours, my advice would be to run the tyres down and get some davenport or Claytons with good tyres for a few hundred quid.

Hmmm... that's amazing; yours look exactly like the ones that are on my van right now right down to similar bits of lacquer peel. Haven't seen any spiders on mine though

No, just offered them based on your message. Hope you get sorted

Got a set of these from Halfords yesterday. They fit OK. Not the highest quality but better than the flaking VW ones I took off.

My VW ones ended up in landfill. They were utter garbage

I priced a new set of VW ones. They wanted £101 for those 4 bits of plastic. The lacquer comes off them really easy.

Thought I’d jump on this thread rather than start a new one.

Got my first Transporter last week. It has 16 inch steels on so also looking at getting some trims until I can afford to switch the wheels to something else.

Any decent 16 inch trims about? Or should I leave as is?

welcome and nice van.

all down to personal choice. if you mean the plastic full covers I personally wouldnt bother and think it looks better as the steel wheel.

like you said if your planning to swap them out might as well save the pennies.

Steel look is great, black or silver !! You have the Centre hub cabs which look great too !!

Big fan of steel "pepper pots".......keep what you have and try to source the VW logo that fits on the centre caps.!!
