Hi Oli, do you get many issues with Velare wheels in terms of 'crackage', or have I just been unlucky with 2 cracked VLR 07's?
So they would be 8.5 rims so the 245/45/20s would work?
They are all the correct weight rating. The roads are in such a poor state. I think you’ve been unlucky.
Many thanks Oli
@Stanfield - Possibly these?

Do you have a link for the VW centre caps or are they original?
They are self adhesive ones but they are metal and slightly domed. I just stuck them on the green Leighton centre caps. I’ve been asked before, but can’t for the life of me find the website where I bought them. Sorry.
Bit of a random one this, but I have a set of 20" tyres I need to move on (brand new)

As everyone on this thread is running 20's I thought it might 'ping a few notifications' and get a bit of traction on selling them!

For Sale - x4 Brand-New Kumho Ecsta PS71 275/35/20 Y(102) Tyres
For sale, due to being supplied on my 20" wheels but not being load rated for my T32. Black Circles are selling them for £158 + delivery. Collection from Bristol (BS30) or I can deliver at a negotiated rate as I travel an awful lot over the country!! Is £500 for the lot too cheap?

Let me be upfront from the start, I hate buying tyres, they melt my brain!
I approaching needing to replace my fronts, I have PHI (not sure if they are the accelerator ones people mention here) 245/45 ZR20’s all round. I’m in a 2015 T32 Kombi. In my previous cars I’ve always gone Michelin cross climate and love them, I don’t do crazy miles so looking to ask:
If you were inclined to pay more if it’s worth it, what tyre type would you choose along the lines of the cross climate?
Also should I get a like for like size or would the general hive mind suggest changing sizes?
Thanks in advance !

If you're happy with the Cross Climate 2 tyre in that size I'd stick with it and replace like for like.
I am rather partial to my Cross Climate 2 SUV's, with the same 245/45 on the front and 275/40's on the rear. My front wheels are 8.5 width and the rears are a 10".
Great in freezing conditions and very happy last weekend on a very wet grassland campsite. Over 5000 miles in on them with no signs of wear.
I'll use them again next time.

JOT6 = if you are indeed using Accelera PHI tyres as i am and have been for years and will continue to do so.
i even use Accelera Track Tyres on my track cars.
i went on these after a side wall puncture one night in my Audi RS6 with a Michelin which cost me a fortune.
as I've said many times my friend is an Accelera dealer.
trade on these =245/45R20 ACCELERA PHI 103Y XL= are £260 inc vat for a set of 4
Please double check you are already using these first.
whats a set of MCC £1000 +

What are the acceleras like as a tyre in the wet and dry? If they are any good you could buy some winters with the money saved
i dont have a problem wet or dry weather they perform great and I've just ordered another 8
everybody drives differently and so any tyre will let go if pushed to the extreme
if money is not an problem then spend over £1000 on MCC , but if you havent tried Acceleras you wont know
JOT6 i use budget winter tyres too and find no difference to the more expensive ones
