T5 Tyres 17" what is available in OZ

[Transporter]

The load rating is more important.

So as long as it's more than what's on the placard I'm good?

Yes.

As I recall when I researched this, the load rating must be equal or better than the original tyres, but the speed rating can be one or two rates lower than the originals, in which T speed rated tyres are okay replacements for H rated tyres. Ss aren't.

I’d say that the speed rating must be at least equal or higher the the vehicle max. speed.
Though, most likely, in the size that can be fitted to the Transporter all today manufactured tyres exceed that.

I don't ever see a multivan hitting more than 180! It just doesn't have the aerodynamics for it!!

My tuned t5.1 132kw has exceeded 180 km/h (gps verified), but you do need a lot of road to wind it out.

Next question. Is et25 too aggressive?

I would say way too aggressive! Maybe illegally so. An 8" rim's stock offset is ET52 I think?
