Tyres-recommendations?

Post by **1664** » 10 Mar 2007, 16:14

My t3 camper has started to get a bit of a 'wobble' at slow speeds (30-40ish)

so I got a friend to raise it on his ramp and check out the steering and stuff. It always has wobbled a bit at 70-80ish; as indeed did my old camper.

Anyway the steering all checked out fine; very good as it turned out so he looked at the tyres and although they're commercial ones frankly they've had it - the spare was in a shocking state!

Shame really as they've loads of tread left but now I am going to have to replace at least four of them

Rather than just going out and splashing out on the first set I see and in view of the fact I don't intend to sell the camper EVER, I just wondered if anyone could recommend a good tyre and if kwik fit or similar do them? Any help appreciated

Continental VAncos have a good rep. Whatever you get make sure they have correct weight rating and a are a C (commercial vehicle) rated esp for a camper. Also Kumho 814's (I think) Beaker seemed to like I have Yokahama super van £10 each a bustypes last year!

heres some more weblinks on the wiki
