Thanks everyone for the advice when we were stuck in France! After that first day nothing else went wrong with the van so that was a relief. I was a bit paranoid about the wheel coming off for the rest of the trip though..
When we got back we went to a wheel specialist and they took one look at it and said the offset was wrong. (not that that would affect the fixing but obviously still not ideal). I think its possible that the nuts used weren't quite. Anyway, we're investigating getting some new wheels and once they're on i won't have to worry about it any more!
Cheers
Jane.
