Hi Martyb,
we got our alloys from Tyresave in North Wales...............

Van, Minibus & Motorhome Alloy Wheels from TYRESAVE

We have a 1992 Fiat Ducato that was on 14" rims and where advised by him to go for the 15" rims and 195/70*15 tyres which made them as close as possible to the originals. :rolleyes: Apparently 14" alloys for commercials are hard to get and quite expensive! :p Google it and try....I did. I never believe anybody and always check things out. :confused: If you go to their site scroll down to the Fox Viper rims, 6 1/2 X 15, and click on the 3rd red car it shows the picture of our 'Kwackers'. He took this immediately after fitting them. :D Cost is now £550 all inclusive, for 4 wheels and tyres. :cool: Very chuffed after 2yrs and 26,000mls and they still look great. :eek: Another shot below.;) And...........before Lenny asks about the new ariel that seems to have sprouted over the cab...................DONT!!!

sorry Tony, I forgot to add you, Ian, Andy etc to my add on!!!!!! :D :D :D Funny Lenny didn't beat you to it. The alloys do give it that extra pizazz though. So will the side steps, when I'm well enough to fit them!! :cool: I have a new grill as well and a stunning piece of Maple to cover the name on the steering wheel!! :cool: Nobody will know who made the van as I have de-badged her, all over. (I just like to keep people guessing!) :cool:

:D :cool: JIM!! :cool: :D
 
It does look rather splendid and the alloys set it off very well. Good choice I would say.
