Off the back of this video I have ordered the fuel zephyr with 245 60 17 BFG Ko2s. On a standard height t6 shuttle. Can’t wait to get them on this week. Cheers guys and very helpful over the phone. 👍
Sweet video Andy, I originally wanted Black Rhino wheels fitted to my van, couldn't find anyone that could help with tyre sizing on a standard set up, so i gave up and went for another wheel choice. I love how THQ like to experiment with ideas and try different things out ! Personally I think these look smart the colours definitely suit the van, I wish I had waited for this video to come along before I bought mine lol.
Mines being done on Tuesday, 20" staggered Vossen's and Revo big brake kit coming off, and 17' Fuel Coverts going on with that tyre setup. Bus will stay on air ride.
I’ll tell you by the weekend! Ordered the Navis Mac-AT in bronze yesterday with the Cooper Discovery 225/60/17 tyres. Can’t wait till they arrive and fit them
Brill vid! I’ve ordered a new California T6.1(ascot gray) with vw 30mm lowering springs. It’s coming with parmelston 18” from factory. I’d love this alternative look. Would these wheels work in terms of load rating and what tyre size would you recommend if they fit? Thanks
Iv a t6 chestnut brown kombi and just ordered the 18" that ill run Avon 235 55 18 at tyres on ( a bit of a semi swamp) Great that there's a vid on the different set ups guys.
Hello. My 2WD T32 van has Bilstein NSL SoLow coilovers with 275/35ZR20 tyres. The coilovers are lowered right down (10mm from max lowered). I'm going to be taking the van across the odd field and down the occasional gravel track next year and am worried that both the lowered van and very low profile tyres will not be a good fit. Are there any good options for me that do not include dumping the Bilsteins (height, wheel size, tyres?)? Thanks.
@@BarcombeBoy adjust the coilovers higher if you want more clearance. That is correct type size though. With NSL's at the highest you can just get away with 264/40/20 if you wanted. Or look at a 17" wheels on AT tyre. You honestly have loads of clearance now though. My ride height on air is about 180mm below standard and I've driven all round Europe including on and off step ferry ramps with no issues. You're probably around 85mm below standard currently.
@@THQAutomotive Thanks very much. I am inclined to ramp it up and put 17" alloys with 103v/h AT or 4 season tyres on it to cope with the dirt tracks (of which there are a fair few in Norway). My issue is then what size the tyres should be so they don't meet the wheel arches. :-(
I was actually thinking about doing this a while back on a new project I had planned. This is the second set up Ive seen who's beaten me too it. Love it think it will be a big win in the V.W world.
Love the look. I am considering the Fuel Covert 18” wheel combo with some Cooper tyres 255x55x18. Will I have clearance issues with my SoLow setup on a LWB T6.
Love those wheels, I just bought a Mojave beige T6.1 on standard suspension and want those wheels with bfg Goodrich tyres. I think the bronze centre will go great with the bodywork colour
I just picked up my new T6.1 shuttle in Fortana red last week to haul my dogs around in (Middle row of seats removed) and to use as a day van after the lock down ends for day tripping. Looking for Limo tint all round and about a 35mm lift. I think those wheels in that colour would set off the van nicely, but I have spoken to quite a few people who have gone down the swamper route and they all have conflicting stories of what rubs and what doesn't, what's drivable and what's not... I like BFG tyres but don't know what size would work on these without rubbing (either stock ride height or lifted) and as far as I know, no one is recalibrating the 6.1 speedo yet?
Correct, at this point no one can do T6.1 Speedo’s. Give me a buzz on Monday and I can explain tyre options and potential rubber issues. 0116 2478156. Ask for Andy.
Yeah agreed. I like the ride height look. Lifted it needs bigger tyres. I love the bronze. I can’t wait to try some bronze zephyr’s for the next video.
This of the fuel zephyr wheel are the correct width and offset. If the van we talk about the most popular sizes for standard suspension. It’s towards the end. Hope this helps
What does this do to the VW warranty on a new van? I’d love to change to bigger AT tyres on my new van but concerned the change in rolling radius would invalidate warranty on the drivetrain.
Looks great, after an opinion I have a T5.1 T32 Kombi highline standard suspension and struggling in which wheel direction to go. Was going to do the 20” route but the more AT wheels I see the more I like them especially for comfort. However you don’t see many silver vans especially sport line front ended T5.1’s with swamper style wheels. So wondered what you’d go for? 👍🏻
Hi guys, I've been looking at getting a set of these in 18" for my bagged t6. Do you have a good tyre size in mind which wouldn't rub or stop me getting low aired out
I don't think you can get an 18" AT tyre in the right size to work with air. We looked in to it at the time. Use willtheyfit.com and compare the sizes to what we used on a 17".
Id be like the original customer with my needs and how often I need at max lift. Ive a 4Mo on Devonports but would like to go Air as well as nicer/bigger wheels so this is a great video thanks. I dont like the complete slammed look though so am considering VB Suspension By the way..... your lights are EPIC !! Cheers for getting the order over to Ireland
Love the look and even more so the thought of a more comfortable ride. Couple of questions for ya What tyre size do you run on the Canteras? and what pressure are you running as your drive height? Thanks Keep the vids coming.
@@THQAutomotive thanks bud I'm guessing you don't worry too much about the lack of load rating? yea I believe we have the same system lowdown bags & 3p management. I need to get braver with my ride height.... is yours subframe raised?
Love the look matey, Just wondering would you consider selling your Amorok wheels as I would be interested? And what tyre size are you running on those? I was looking on your website yesterday at your so low coilovers but was out of stock? Do you when they will be next available and wait time for fitment? Cheers
Not until Feb for more stock. Fitting when Boris says but we have a 2 month back log to sort first. I’ll keep the amarok’s. I’ll need them at some point.
awesome wheel and looks so cool , will defo look into getting this style as the roads where i live are rough as, will you be doing a wheel and tyre package on the site? keep up the great vids guys
You can run 235/65r17 or 255/55r18 (255/55's are really close to the 275/40r20's people run... mm's at most) on a 30/40mm drop at most but they fit without any rubbing except in certain circumstances. Honestly, with the roads being as shit as they are nowadays i don't see the point in low profile tires anymore. I'd rather have more rubber and not be worrying about will i bottom out a rim on that biggish bump over there.
@@THQAutomotive Depends on the lowering tbh. Slammed or at 50mm or lower it'll rub for sure. I know the 255/55r18's fit on a 30mm lowered as i had that on my van (t5.1 with some generic 18x9's) no problem. Only if i hit a speedbump full pelt or full lock did it rub and even then it was negligible and dependent on where the van was (on a slope or at an angle ect.) On a 30mm drop the 255's will have a pretty much even gap around the arch... enough to squeeze your fingers/hand in and clear any debris from the tread if needed but obviously not like lifted lol. The 255's are technically identical in diameter to the 235's brand dependent just wider. The 275's are standard for companies like leighton vans who use a 40mm lowering spring on theirs. A/T tires are the way forward though for vans imo as it completely changes the ride quality from somewhat jarring to almost SUV like.
@@dodo19923 275/40/20 it too big, companies fit them because they are cheap and over load rated. The rolling radius is wrong, they look too big and they are really hard. To give the tyre that load rating they have super hard sidewalls. 255/55/18 will also have the wrong rolling radius. Rub will also depend on the ET and width of the wheel.
@@THQAutomotive Fair do's... I can only speak from personal experience and never had any issues to speak of but then i don't really run my cars/vans to spec. I'm running 225/65r17's at the min on 17x8's on my new(ish) van as it's all i could get hold of at the time. Will probably look at the 235/65r17's on a 17x8.5 when the time comes to upgrade them as i like the more rounded look it gives but still have more to go before i get to that stage. I didn't know that's why they fit 275's but i guess if it somewhat works then whatever, it's not really the way i like things but each to their own i guess .The alpine speaker kit is most likely next on my list now i've finished the lining in the back which was a pain in the arse to do lol. You guys got engine work done with Darkside Developments iirc... Any issues come up or would you recommend them when i get round to remaps/engine mods ect?
Your Van looks nice on those Swamper wheels, but I would have gone all black, with the state of the roads running the lower profiles can be problematic as you are always trying to find a smooth line. A friend has 35's on an A5 coupe and they are more like rubber bands, no wonder the higher profiles feel more comfortable. In this world don't follow the herd, branch out and find your own style, if not we will end up in boring grey place, with Ed Sheeran on repeat.
I really liked the bronze BBS so wanted to do bronze on the AT wheels. That and fuel made the prototypes in bronze so we don't have an option! haha. Yes it does feel way way more comfy than my standard 225/35 20's :)
Pretty pointless exercise, when the first hint of mud or snow will fill the gap in the arches and turn the tyres into slicks as the tread is packed full. If you want to run silly low ride height, just stick with normal rubber, the M&S's are completely wasted.
Thanks for your comment but when it snows I can just lift it. The air suspension goes higher than standard height. I always run mud and snows in the winter. They've been great on several trips to the Alps snowboarding.

Thanks for the video - I'm looking to fit the Coverts to my camper with 245/65/17 Grabber AT3s on standard OEM suspension and reckon that'll work?
Yes, no problem on standard suspension
Would the ride quality be any different running these on a T5 on solows compared to banded steels 235×55×17 ?
I don't under the question sorry.

nice looking wheel . im running 235x65 17 gg on my t6 id like to lower it not sure what to put in it . it is used for work
30mm lowering springs at most. Eibach's are good for it, you get a lowered look but still retain full motion of the wheel.
Love the look when it’s low, don’t like it when it’s high. Love the bronze on black look though.
Yeah agreed. I like the ride height look. Lifted it needs bigger tyres. I love the bronze. I can’t wait to try some bronze zephyr’s for the next video.

They are a different tyre with a different noise rating, thread pattern and wet grip. You need to compare the on a tyre site.

We’ve not tried an 18 yet. We’ve had these made the right width and et so they don’t as a 17. Speak to Matt at T5 upgrades. He’s the expert.
Looks good ! Nice to see something different

In this world don't follow the herd, branch out and find your own style, if not we will end up in boring grey place, with Ed Sheeran on repeat.
I really liked the bronze BBS so wanted to do bronze on the AT wheels. That and fuel made the prototypes in bronze so we don't have an option! haha. Yes it does feel way way more comfy than my standard 225/35 20's :)
Here in Finland we have WINTER
Perfect, you need WINTER wheels then ;)
Swampers rule 👊
Yeah there is defo a market for it. They're growing on me more and more
I love it and want these wheels and tyres please
Do it 👊
Bom dia, achei que a da Amarok ficou melhor
É bom tentar algo diferente, certo?
What is the fascination with lowering a VW Transporter?
Because thats what we do. Plus it improves the way they handle and drive massively.
This looks cool as fook fellas...its cool to be different.
Thanks, it’s different for sure

Pretty pointless exercise, when the first hint of mud or snow will fill the gap in the arches and turn the tyres into slicks as the tread is packed full. If you want to run silly low ride height, just stick with normal rubber, the M&S's are completely wasted.
Thanks for your comment but when it snows I can just lift it. The air suspension goes higher than standard height. I always run mud and snows in the winter. They've been great on several trips to the Alps snowboarding.
Not for me. Bagged vehicles look broken, only emphasised by the off road wheels.
Each to their own 🤷🏻♂️😊
Ps, they drive soooooo comfy
Sorry but its a no for me on lowered!! looks much better lifted
I’m looking forward to seeing these wheels on a lifted van. I think they’ll look sweet. We’ll do a lifted video soon.
That's an abomination. Absolutely hideous and incredibly embarrassing.
Nothing wrong with the wheels, but the amount it is lowered is shambolic.
Awesome, thanks for you comment :)
@@THQAutomotive Well you did ask. :)
@@sandersson2813 I know, I meant it. I genuinely was saying thanks for the comment.
@@THQAutomotive One ones meat is another man's poison. Be boring if we all liked the same thing.
@@sandersson2813 totally agree :)
Awful, dont suit the van at all.
Genuinely appreciate you’re feedback. They’re the 1st to say it. Thanks 😊
Love it!
Lowered stampers are where it's at 🙌
Love it
Thanks :)
