Think I'd be looking at GVW, rather than kerb weight. A quick google suggests that even a Mondeo estate has a GVW around 2.4t, compared to 2.5t on our vans.
Good point chap!

I think it's got remote air ride suspension.
Re: Largest Diameter Rims For T25
Sorry but that looks ridiculous. That wheel is way to big for this sytle of van IMHO.

It's also probably undriveable.

Re: Largest Diameter Rims For T25
I agree.. gross weight is the important bit.. But also a lot of OE quality wheels are forged and over engineered..AdrianC wrote:mrhutch wrote:wasn't being funny chap, if the car's unladen kerb weight is the same as your bus then cool...

Only Syncro's have a GVW of 2.5t... 2wd max is 2390kgs
Unless the 2wd van was specced with the factory HD suspension option, where the GVW is 2.6t.. Very rare...
But.. I dare bet most campers are loaded to more than that when going on holidays etc.. you would be surprised at how much an "empty" camper weighs..
