Nice wheels, I went for BF Goodrich for my truck camper and I'm pleased with the extra clearance that they give. Last week I was laughing a pimped T4 that had had been lowered so much that he was bottoming out when I followed him down a track. If you're going off road* you need decent clearance and decent tyres. * or even just driving on the shitty roads in this corner of the Black Country/South Staffs.

Thank you Tony! Ayyy! Love the Bf’s! So true ain’t it! Haha 🤘
Put AT2 on me Defender 90 last year. what a difference to what I had on,, in a very good way especially on wet greasy roads. Think they are a bit more open/aggresive tread than the AT3 but after nearly 12 months only about 6000 mile no real signs of wear. If they are the same compound I would like to think they will surprise you in a good way. Havent noticed any increase in road noise. Regular checks for nails and screws, have removed 2 or 3 careully with no punctures to report. looking good.

Sounds mint mate! Love it! I’ll keep my eyes pealed for the nails! 🤘
Just make sure if your spare is the standard van one and you get a puncture on the front you cant put a 17in and 20in together it'll shag the diff you'll need to put a rear on the front and put the smaller wheel on the back . Great channel Becky will need another step the get in cab now hahahaha
They have added something special to the look of it.....not surprised you're buzzing
They look cool AF. Sweet work. Great to see it coming together. Keep going pal 👌👌👌👌💪
They look awesome dude! Totally transforms the look of the van! I’m gonna go get me a set of them for my wagon 😉
Looking Sick!!

Now you’re talking Jake, beasts. Glad you’re going for the full overlander look with the van. Do think the rear ladder now need spraying black to match those sick wheels. And I may have said it before but check out you tuber, living the van life. He has a sick merc van that you may get some ideas for yours. Anyway take care Jake.

Hi Jake just coming over from project Amber looking forward to seeing your content

It is amazing how much tires can completely change the appearance of a vehicle. These new tires look great! Is a lift in your future? Cheers and safe travels!

What were the old tyre and wheel sizes and what’s the new sizes ?
The van now looks top banana. Looks like your a bit happier at 1 Civ Div. Did you use the original wheel bolts or did Rogue supply new ones? 🇬🇧

Thought about it mate, fancy a bar 🤘
it looks good but would look great with a lift
Van is looking pretty good. Do not want to tempt fate here, but do take a good look at your security as vans in general and especially campers are being targeted for theft.....usually the vehicle taken rather than contents. Do Not Post Up what you are doing for security, in case the wrong person sees it, but The good Old fashioned stuff like a decent steering lock, your VIN number acid etched on all your windows and lights and definitely a wheel clamp( if leaving unattended for a while ) are good deterrents.
