40MM What 18" or 17" AT wheel & Tyre combo would Fit?

[scottk32]

Have a T6.1 2020 T32 Kombi when purchased was lowered 40mm, has 20s with 40 profile roads tyres at moment.

Go on a lot of Wet Grass and Mud, really want to switch to an All Terrain tyre and wheels package like a General Grabber AT3 (5x120 18"j et45 235/55/18 profile), or go to 17 if can't fit.

Anyone have any experience on what will fit without rubbing etc, heads spinning trying to get a right fit, wheel and Profile, was hoping for as much tyre as I can't away with.

thanks

Scott

I have 235/65 17 AT3s and a 30mm drop. No issues at all. Believe I could get another 10mm lower without issue too. I wouldn’t go 245/65 17 as would throw the speedo out too much and I believe rub.

T6.1 full camper conversion (T28) lowered iirc 35mm approx on 235/65/17 Falken AT3WA no issues so far with no rubbing . Not the best image but you get the idea….

Hi . What’s the ride like ?

 

[scottk32]

Improved definately, no increase in road noise that I can notice and a softer less bumpy ride

I think this is absolutely stunning! Can I ask what made you go for the coverts in 17" as opposed to 18"

Cheers, went 235/65 17 as it was an easy wheel & tyre combo to source, and I believe gives a larger side wall ratio than 18” for an improved ride quality with no rubbing etc. I find the ride so much more comfortable than when running on 20s. Love the sporty look but just not practical for us and how we use the van.

Exactly the wheels I’m after.
Going to go with scorpion tyres.
Where’d you get wheels from please ?
Did you shop around and get the best price ?

in 2 x wheels!
