I’ve now upgraded my steel wheels to KMC Holeshot wheels with BF Goodrich AT tyres.
I bought these from North Hants wheels and tyres.
You can get also these on ebay: rover.ebay.com/...
They are KMC Holeshots with BFG AT2 245/65/R17.

Looks smart mate 👍🏻
Thanks mate! I love them
Great vid mate
Cheers mate nice one 👍
Mines lowered on 20's but I fancy trying this type of setup but not sure they'll fit ok!!!
Looks cool
Cheers mark
Nice one.
Thanks appreciated!
is that van lifted, any rubbing issues, what is the exact wheel dimensions (width:j, offset:et) ? any issues with 1st gear speed for offroad use?
Big thanks for your video. Given me some great info
Hi Darren, im in the dilemma of picking these wheels in 16 or 17 inch at the moment. Yours seem to sit nice and wide. Are you using wheels spacers as well or is that just the wheels themselves? Thanks
Hey mate mine are 17’s on a completely standard T32 set up. No wheel spacers or nothing, but my plastic arches may appear to make it look wider. Just be careful as I remember reading that they only work properly on a T30 or T32 (to avoid rubbing etc), and that anything less must be lifted. Hope this helps cheers
Hello,
I want to put these tires on a T5 4motion, I often drive off-road but I'm worried about the sticky mud in the fender.
Please, what is the diameter of the tires? And how much space is left for the wheel arch / fender at your size?
Thank you, Vašek.
What's the offset on the wheels?
Hey man! I recently got a 2015 T5 Transporter! Do you think these tires will fit perfectly or do you recommend 235/70/16?
Hi mate I live in turkey and I’m trying to get wheels and tyres just like yours
I can get the 245/65/17 bf Goodrich no problem
But having difficulty in buying the wheels what size do the wheels have to be I have a 2016 T5 it hasn’t been lowered or raised, what does offset mean can you help
I’m a complete novice
Cheers mate
Hi mate,
How much pressure do you put on them?
Really cool ride👌🏼👌🏼
Hi mate I was running 55psi I think 🤔
Where did you get your wheel and tyres from I’m wanting to put the same on my t5
Hey mate links are in description of all my vids 👍
Hi Darren, love the look! My van is lowered by 40mm at the moment and have some 20 alloys on it. I'm wanting to change the look, I've ordered some 18" black steels with the hope of getting similar tyres to yours, do you think they will fit ok with the van being lowered slightly?
What are they like on motorways? Noisy?
Robert Belcher hi Robert no not at all really, a slight whirl but to be expected. A lot more quieter and comfy than the commercials I had on 👍
Хоть бы один показал где ездить надо с такой резиной на т5

Hey Darren, how much did you pay for the wheels and tyres please.
Bernie Baldwin Hi Bernie, phone the company that sells them they will give you a price 👍
It was north hants wheels and tyres by the way, hope this helps
Hi! Have you lowered your van? Or it is a standard height?
I'm interested to fit it into my van :)
Theerarat Siriaramsakul hi it’s completely standard 😄
@@tubedarren Thanks :)))
Is it possible to fit 255/65R17 or 265/65R17?
What do you think?
@@theeraratsiriaramsakul527 Hi, I have an AU 5.1, 132kw crewvan with factory steel 17's and the standard tyre is 235/55R17 103W. Be mindful of the load rating. I wouldn't mind a set of alloys myself, just too expensive.
Hi! its 245/65/17 ?
Yes correct 💪👍
Do the tyres hit the wheel arch ever?
Hi mate not on mine at all, mines a little higher than usual as it’s a 4-motion though so that may make a difference
Tube Darren getting some on tomorrow. Mine’s a 4 motion as well, so 👍🏻
Cheers mate!
Great, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed !!
Hey Mate, have the tyres on and pretty happy! The only issue is that I didn't factor in that the spare is too big for its home now, much to my wife's amusement. What did you do with your spare?
Trapped In Plastic I didn’t get a spare for mine. I still need to. There is a company that fits a bigger spare wheel holder underneath the van which may fit the wheels we have, they are called vwt5 upgrades I need to contact them myself for mine when I get round to it 👍 hope this helps
HI mate what about the spare have you kept the same steel wheel.
Michael Teale I have an RAC plastic card 😩😆🤷♂️
