Most vehicles I would say don't fit them, cos their heavey and this does have an adverse effect on handling etc. Also they wear quicker.

But if like me you don't do too many miles a year, and don't thrash your van then why not, its not like you'll ever exceed the speed rating of the tyre on a T25!

A lot of the kit car boys are using the electric power steering colom from a corsa.

Might be possible to adapt it for a van, worth a look.

Cheers

Found out it was only a split vaccum pipe for the brake servo, causing it lean out and not run on two cylinders. 40p bit of hose and she's running sweet. :) A little bit of wel...

Hello All! I'm about to purchase a 1900 T25 camper on the weekend that has a engine problem. I am told that there is a suspected crack in the cylinder head, but obviously I can't confirm untill I've striped it myself. I've read a few comments on the internet regarding the 1900 engine's reliability, ...
