I am about to order a set of 4, size wise I am looking at 235 65 17. Before I press the buy it now button, Will these fit my standard suspension 2016 T32 Kombi without any issues.
Michelin Cross Climate 3s on Devonport Wheels

That would be a 24mm increased radius over stock with the speedo measuring about 6% down. I suspect it would be ok given the tyres aren’t too wide but given the difference is meaningful, I’d definitely wait for confirmation from someone already running at that size.
Seems a lot of people are going for the same size but Falken Wildpeaks. 15% off Black Friday deal with Black Circles on Michelin brings these tyres to a similar fitted price as the Falkens, so I think I`m going for the Michelin.
CC3 are not listed with Blackcircles with 60 profile as far as I can work out.
As previously mentioned that’s a big increase in overall diameter. I know a lot of people are running that size, but I’d be concerned how it affects your gearing more than anything else (especially as it looks like you tow a big caravan).
Personally I’d go for 235/55/17

Yep just seen they list 55s. Just going to work out the cost difference.
The 55 profiles are 103 load rated and described as a car tyre. The 65 profiles are 108 load rated and are a described as 4x4.
So anyone with 235 65 17 notice a big gearing difference ?
103 is load rated for a T32?
Yep, looked at door plate , so 55s it is.
I have been running Devonport’s with 235/65/17 Wildpeak’s on my 2017 T6 T32 and they are superb!
I've got 235/55R17 Vredestein Quatrac Pro on my Davenport wheels. I've been impressed with the improved ride over the 16" Claytons with 205/65R16. Probably due to being able to run lower tyre pressure.
The traction is vastly improved on muddy country roads and on camp site fields.
