Took it for another drive today and all seems ok.
The low profiles with the new front suspension are making it hard on bumps but other than that all good

Full of win buddy! Except the wheels. You can't please everyone mind. Show us your engine!
I may regret saying this and be flamed also... But some slot mags (without the hot rod lower at the front stance) would look lovely!
I always thought to myself if I were in a trade and needed a van I would have a Mk2 or mk1 tranny with a modern engine to stand out a bit!

Thinking about banded steelies to lower it snug more.what would they look like? Would they suit? I think that this would look just right - maybe in 15" flavour with some good tyre thickness on there. Banded with fins would be even more awesome though!  Love the van - One similar is on my will own one day list! Rysz. |

If I had 7.5 and 8.5 x 14 inch rims what tyres should I use to give me a stretch on the wall?
I don't want to much though

Would these be ok or would they look wrong.

Have you thought about 16 inch steels from a mk6 transit. A straight bolt on fit if you go for the smaller transit, i think they come in 5.5 and 6.5 inch flavours. I'm doing this for my P100 - having them widened to suit so I can run fairly low profile tyres.
Love the Van.
