ok so alloy wheels for T25s

Post by **busbuddy** » 01 Aug 2006, 22:37

now I'm new to T25s having just liberated a T25 karmann gipsy back from germany
most of you seem to have 17" or 18" wheels but I have a set of 19s and 20s wheels in my possession which will fit on the bus
has anyone else fitted these sizes, any special problems I should know about??

I will probably go with the 19s coz our zephyr looks better on the 20s

b realy carefull as as far as i know you will have some clearance issues with 19 's 1 other van i know of with 19s on had loads of probs with ofset and rubbing it took boddy mods (roll the arches) and some big spacers to get em in , pcd for t3/t25 112 offset 35 ,if the wheels are thick then youl need stud conversion kit and longer press in for the rear .
try the brickyard for both !
