TSW have said the Montage has a weight limit of around 1900lbs per wheel, translated into new-money that equates to about 860kg - 860 x 4 = 3440kg: more than enough for our van and its camper interior.
Next to decide on is tyre profile; the standard package from Rimstyle is 255/35/20, but a tyre with such a low profile can look a little lost under the van's arches, not to mention a harsher ride quality. This is why I'm probably looking more towards a 255/40/20 tyre - although this will knock the speedo (and ultimately the mileometer) out of kilter?! Decisions, decisions...

Nice alloys. Can't wait to see them on the van!
ReplyDeleteCheers Blakey, I've already Photoshop'd them onto the van and they look great. I chose black alloys due to the big expanse of Stone Blue on the van, silver alloys would have just added another colour and complicated the look.
ReplyDeleteJust need to get rid of all the salt off the roads, roll on Summer!
Great alloys have you got them yet, also what wheels you going to be fitting on those?
ReplyDeleteThese would look great with some of those new Pirelli low profile tyres.
