215/65 R16 C 106/104/T Tyres for Multivan

Wouldn't hurt to get a second opinion on that, lemmiwinks

Ring Bundoora Tyres on 94656244

They fitted some Maxxis on my van couple of months ago. Good price too

I had mine fitted last week too! They are still in the brochure "light truck, commercial" under UA-103
when i was getting quotes all the Bob Jane stores said they could not get them that they were 'unavailable', I went to an independent store that had Maxxis signs everywhere and they said yes not a problem we have them at the suppliers can get that day.
i tried a few other places and they had them but for about $25 bucks more for each tyre.

not sure on the pressures still, we went away on weekend and i checked tyres beforehand and had 45 in them, so i put them up to the 50
and it rode very well, maybe a bit responsive but quite, i may ring the guy that put them on and ask about pressures.

Just got the Maxxis Vanpro's fitted last friday! Definitely still available, just not through Bob Jane for some odd reason. Tread depth when new - 10mm's, now lets see how long it holds up! The drive of the van is slightly better, feels a little less sluggish.

what pressures are you running lemmiwinks,

Haven't played around with the tyre pressures yet, but it's running 350kpa ll around. Van is usually fully loaded. Haven't driven on the tyres much since I got them as I've been on holidays :banana:

Ok Guys...................... 215/85R 16 and 225/75R 16 Tyres.

Q1. Will they fit on my 6.5" T5 rims and under my front wheel arches without rubbing ?

Q2. To what extent will it alter my speedo readings?

Q3. Will the tyres be road legal in Vic on my T5?

Thanks for your feedback..................

I'm in the market for tyres for my T5 4Motion (215/65/R16C - T Speed Rated), and wanted to clarify the actual Maxxis tyres you have Brian.

The Maxxis website lists MALAS VANPRO (in SUV & Recreation)
Maxxis SUV & Recreational MALAS VANPRO

Others in the thread seem to mention UA-103 but don't see them on Maxxis website. Maxxis list a UE-103 in Light & Heavy Truck, but seems a different tyre to the VanPro
Maxxis Light & Heavy Truck UE-103 RADIAL

What's the best price people have got these for.

Aside, Bob Jane no longer carrying Maxxis which explains some of the "Discontinued" talk. They are doing a countrywide clearance on the brand. Alas, not my size.

Has anyone purchased the Toyo H08 tyre? These come in the exact factory spec; 215 65R16C 104/106T (for 2008 Multivan).

H08

Regards,

Scott

I purchased my Maxxis VANPRO tyres for $197ea fitted, from Tyrepower. Tread depth is one of the deepest I've ever seen. 6 weeks on, haven't had a single problem with them.

Had fitted last week a set of NEXEN EURO-WIN 650 215 65R 16C 109/107R tyres for $145 each @ HIGHWAY TYRES in Geelong onto my 2008 T5 Motion Dualcab


Google Translate

Most open/agressive tyre I could find under $200 with the vw specs.

Currently have no complaints to report.
