I ran 235/75/15`s on my van for a while, no cutting was done but i had to fold the front of the front wheel arch in a little bit where it meets the step, the front tyres also rubbed the original spats a little if i was turning and braking at the same time, this was cured by fitting a 20mm spacer on top of the spring.
They fit in the rear ok leaving about 5mm clearance between the inside of the rear arm and the tyre.30 mm spacers were fitted on the back to level it up with the front.
They looked cool but with the standard 2.1 dj engine and gearbox they really hindered on road performance , i found it a pain driving long distance on the motorway,long hills had me down to 2nd at times :shock: and 4th gear couldnt be used around town much
Hope this helps

They are getting great reviews, great on fuel apparently, the ST which is more on road also looks good

What do you reckon?

New vans are great but they just ain't got no soul!
