Hi guys
I’m thinking of getting 225 60 17 Avon ax7 on vw Devonports has anyone got this set up or running these tyres?

I have Falken WILDPEAK A/T tires fitted and I think they're superb.
Been up around Glencoe and Glenshee in the snow and the van never budged.

@Brother Moses. Is that on a 4WD? Also how are they on mud and what size are they please? I ask as I've heard such good things about those tyres that I was actually considering them when I come to replace my current 'normal' OEM tyres. At the moment, my choice will be between the Wildpeaks or an all season tyre - probably Agilis Cross Climate as I already have the SUV version on my Audi Q5 and think they are very good indeed. My van is 2WD with 17" wheels.
I've got 235 65r17 yokohama geolanders g015's on mine and they are great. Not noisy at all and grip superbly. Supposed to last 50k miles too
Just 2WD mate on 255/55/18.
Got 18" general grabbers on mine and they are really quiet. Also have a set of banded 19s with dunlop winter snow tyres that I had on my t5 and they have been brill too even though they are about half worn now. Although I am toying with the idea of selling one of the sets and getting some 20s and lowering the suspension slightly and keeping the others for winter
I am running BF Goodrich KO2 (245/65r17) tyres and they seem OK so far. I get more noise from the snorkel intake near my head, than the tyres.
Is that Keith’s swamper you've bought mate?
Yes it is. I was going to build one but when I added up a low mileage T6 4Motion, A camper conversion + Offroad spec, it was cheaper to buy secondhand.
I’m a fan of Falken. Had winter sets on my Golf. What size are they? Amarok steels?

These are 17″ Fuel Zephyr Matt BRONZE Finish 8.5 5×120 Wheels with BF Goodrich KO2 (245/65r17) Tyres

235 65 17 Falken Wildpeak on OE Davenport T6 T32 alloys and 20mm spacers: no rubs, 24mm raise, speedo about 2% under compared with GPS
1 1/2 years on no problems and super comfortable, excellent getting out of muddy pitches this winter. BFG don't to this size.

235 65 r17 yokohama geolandar go15 in my Devonports, super comfy and quiet too
Hi, I just ordered my new T6.1 Transporter. I am looking at some options to make it more rugged. I don't want to mess with suspension mods so this looks promissing! Really loving the looks of your van! Great work. I think this wil be the way to go for me!
Same here, was looking to get a T6 4 motion to replace my ageing t5 and at the budget I had was looking at a couple of 100k miles 2016 highlines panel vans. Then I stumbled across the one I have now, 67plate DSG 204 highline 4 motion with leather and factory LED lights, Reimo pop top and camper conversion for a couple of grand more- seemed like a no brainer
, certainly couldn't have converted either of the others I was looking at for the same price
