sport van wheels

[chep]

my mate has a mk 6 ex bt 300 swb transit could he put the 18" sportvan wheels on it with no probs??? dosnt carry much weight in the van just work tools,or can they only be fitted to the mk 6 260 model?

Think they can only be fitted to the T260 mate

thats only the tyres tho aint it is there a weight limit on the wheels

wont be a problem other than legally but it wont actually be danngerous in any way at all providing you dont overload them (which you could just as easly do in a T260)

so basically what u r saying is that he could fit them to the t300 providing he got the correct tyres for that weight of van?

you need wheels and tyres that equal or exceed the axle limits on the van (to be legal) not sure if the sportvan alloys have a weight on them (scotty might know) and if they do what it is or if you can get tyres with a high enough weight limit - but they dont need to be the exact size as the sportvan tyres

thanks for the help will need to find out more info on this 1 for him or speak to the local tyre shop to see what he advises in getting perhaps a bigger tyre on the rim to be safer
