hi no i need all the help i can get as the van is being built on a tight budget. what tyres would i need for 7x16 inch wheels i like the look of 60 or even 40 side wall thanks.

your speedometer is dependant on you keeping the diameter of the wheel as specified.
Also your gearing is dependant on the same specification

you can't just fit what looks OK.

take a look at the tyre size calculator either here in the wiki or on the Brickyard.
they will give you the size of tyre that can be fitted to your rim, and keep the diameter as close to correct as possible
