cute but ask about weight rating and see what they say - they state they will fit, but don't state that they are suitable for T25, 750Kg I think you want as a minimum weight rating

I see. Maybe this does need following up for the sake of saftey for other bus owners? Thanks for the tip of Aiden.

Spoke to Retro Dubs yesterday. He is waiting for a reply from the manufactures. He said there TUV approved and should be fine on my caravelle with sparse interior (just a rock 'n' roll bed)...

Mate just a heads up.

The offset is pretty low. I'm running Empi 5 with a similar offset and the tyres wear on the inside rather quickly. am now trying to change em :oops: Theres an awesome guide on the Brick yard forum in the T3 chat bit on suitable wheels, offsets etc

:ok

To be honest I've lost intrest in the whole T25 alloy wheel fitment saga atm. It's not helping though looking at pictures of vans with none suitable but cool looking alloys.
