            Yes. No idea what they are like- saw some people fitted them on FacialBook and bought them on a whim!

              So, Been having tyre fun in the last few days.

              When I bought my van a few years back, it came with some sort of Audi alloy wheels- probably from an A4 or similar. I didn't really check the tyres as it had recently been MOTed and thought nothing of it.

              However, some time later, I had what can only be described as an "instant flat" after going around a roundabout. So I inflated it again and went straight to a garage. They then informed me that the front two tyres were not extra load rated- so essentially car tyres, but the back were fine. So I got two new tyres (extra load rated) fitted on their recommendation and left it at that.

              Roll forward to yesterday and I noticed a bald spot and wear around the edge so went back to get a new one. At this point the guy at the tyre place tells be that they are the wrong tyre and I should have larger van tyres. Essentially he says I have car tyres, though extra load rates. The size is 205/55ZR16 94W XL.

              Begs the question as to why they didn't say the first time around! I know next to nothing about wheels and tyres and don't pretend to!

              Explains why the wheels look so small in the arches!! [emoji23]

              So seems I need to now buy 4 new larger tyres. Might as well get new wheels whilst I am there I think!

                          Fits quite nicely into my existing “sticker cluster”! [emoji16][emoji1303]



                          Ps... Yes, those bumpers do need a tad of blackening up!

                              How long does it last mate. Done ours with some bumper stuff but you have to keep at it. Will get some wurth bumper dye when we get round to it.

                                The front is lasting better than the back but it may help to leave a bit longer to let soak in before wiping off any excess
