Didn’t think much to the wheels when they came out but seeing them on your stunning van has changed my mind. Really like them. Great video as ever and love the montage!

[@SteveField]

🙏. Thanks buddy, 😎. Montages are the reason I wanted to upload videos and I will be doing more in this area. With van content now👍👍

[@silverlinkz]

Awesome video as usual Steve! As soon as you referenced the Momos I was with you! New wheels suit very well and should make for an easier detailing experience! Here's to the next one!!

[@SteveField]

🙏thanks buddy😊. I’m really glad to see people remember the momos as they were an awesome wheel back in the day. It’s sooo much more fun to detail now 🙏☺️

[@alexjones2255]

Hope you’re keeping well Steve! Glad to see the vans always looking great 😎

[@alexjones2255]

And the new wheels are 10/10!

[@SteveField]

🙏thanks Alex, yes all good thank you very pleased with the mods at present ☺️🙌👍

[@annawalker7387]

Awesome 👏 I need some but I’ve just brought some alloys 🙄 missing the videos more soon please!

[@SteveField]

Thanks Anna, it’s a slippery slope when you start getting into alloys as too many nice ones, hard to choose 🤦🏼‍♂️. I will get more videos out soon 🙌

Hi Steve! Good looking rims!Looking awesome on your Van! The HQ has a stunning variety of good looking rims. For my T6 i'd prefer the swamper style rims.

[@SteveField]

🙏thanks again buddy. Yes HQ have a great selection and I have seen some awesome swapper set ups they have done too! #lifetedandthelowered 🤙😎

[@aurimasrekstys7299]

Stunning just wow :D

[@SteveField]

🙏thanks dude 😎

[@CaptainCrash999]

As soon as I saw them I thought “they look like Momo Arrows” 😂 Definitely my favourite wheel from back in the day, always wanted them for my E30 BMW but struggled to get hold of some so went for TSW Stealth, another great wheel of the time, wheels look fab Steve

[@SteveField]

🤔dude! Snap, I did exactly the same on my E30!!!! And then later I changed my stealths for a real nice new wheel called Kahn RS something RSR I think! On a 17” which was real nice too!! 🙂

[@allanwalker5325]

These look great, mind if I ask if you get any rubbing on the Navis up front? I'm thinking of running these with 265s on the front, 275s on the rears. Thanks

[@SteveField]

🙏thanks. I’m not getting any rubbing on normal ride height. But the tyres have brushed the inners on a full lock on my preset low. I don’t know for sure but if your looking for a tuck the 265 might be pushing it. But I’ve not tried. If you do let me know how you get on 👍👍

[@Jp-yn6te]

Big improvement however do like black. Wonder if do them in the black gloss as I cant find any easy clean in black..loving the vids.

[@SteveField]

🙏thanks buddy 👍. Would look sweet in some black options too I agree. Soo much easier to clean 😎.

[@purpletrance9874]

They look better (less fussy) than the Vossens. Can see more of the red calipers too. No protection from kerb rash though. Overall though: 👍👌😎

[@SteveField]

Thanks yes got to stay well away from the curbs 😬

[@MrPetemur]

Hi Steve loving the videos buddy, Could you possibly point me in the direction of where you got your roof bars please as we are after a set for our T6. Many thanks

[@SteveField]

🙏Thanks Pete. Appreciate the support 🙌. I am not sure about the roof bars though… I don’t have any ??

[@Dalesturgess]

Simply stunning mate 👍

[@SteveField]

🙏. Thanks dude. 😎

[@stuartrobson4891]

Yes! I always wanted a set of momo Arrow alloys ended up with momo Sports on my nissan sunny gti back in the day lol

[@SteveField]

Nissan sunny! Yes! great memories of the favourite motors around at the time and that was one of them 💪 🤙

[@ste2529]

Nice wheels think will get a set as also reminds me of the momo arrows I once had.

[@SteveField]

They have proven to be superb wheel for the price 👍

[@chrismarshall5743]

You shown the black alloys what size were they and what size tyres do you have on them did you have to do any mods for them to fit

[@SteveField]

The black alloys are my winter alloys, they are Cades Hera 20" 20x9J Et38 and tyres are 255 x 35 x 20. this set up bolts directly on and requires no extra mods on mine 👌

[@leightonwatkins7253]

Awesome again Steve love everything about your van wheels looks ace 👍

[@SteveField]

🙏Thanks buddy, really appreciate that👍

[@richm6469]

That's the reason I picked bbs sx. Easier to clean + it's a more timeless OEM look.

[@SteveField]

Yes That's a lovely wheel too!!

[@ian_morg]

Nice wheels! I had a set of Momo Arrows on my 306 back in the day.

[@SteveField]

Was an awesome wheel of its time and would have looked mint on the 306. Another great hatch of its time 😎

[@thomasbutler3500]

Hi Steve, hope you are well. Im strugling to find a 255/35/20 with a load rating over 97. Any chance you could point me in the right direction. Its the biggest tyre size i can have if i hope to have solow coilovers but i would like a tyre rated for my t28. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[@SteveField]

Hi Thomas. I will check the Tyres that I got with the silver Navis wheels from Transporter HQ when I bought them as I still have a pair around me. They were only a budget tyres but they were rated to 103 on a 255/35/20. Will come back to you👍

I have the same colour T6.1 and thinking the anthracite versions with Bilstein B14 Comfort from THQ...just got to save my pennies.

[@SteveField]

Great choice and I have a friend that has that colour on his T6. Looks 👌👌👌

[@perrygraf1974]

Nice wheel. Think I'd be to worried about curb rashing them. I'm also running Air ride and I'm looking for new 20s. Is it fair to say provided I go no wider than 245/35 front, 255/35 rears I could use ET35, ET38, ET40 or ET42 on a 9J ?

[@SteveField]

Thanks buddy.... I would poss not go as much as ET35 as this can catch but 38, 40 & 42 all work 👍

[@perrygraf1974]

@@SteveField Thanks Steve

[@perrygraf1974]

If I were to go 8.5J could I get away with an ET35?

[@SteveField]

@@perrygraf1974 You MIGHT get away with that on a 245 tyre but its probably best to run this by @LowdownTransporters as they are very experienced in working combo's and lows

[@doubleawindowcleaningphil5003]

Looks lovely. Are the wheels and tyres the same size front and back Steve?

[@SteveField]

🙏 thanks Phil, yes they are same same size all round & tyres👍

[@doubleawindowcleaningphil5003]

@@SteveField great, I have your original Davenport wheels but t32 standard suspension on my t6, would you think the ride is a lot harsher with these bigger wheels on and I’m always carrying a full load #workvan

[@stewartmacdonald601]

Since you asked... My guess is a new set of wheels and tyres, rather than a simple Refurb doubling as a colour change. I’ll even add to that, and guess its poor quality ditchfinder tyres, in a load rating not suitable to the van? I’ll respond / edit if I’m wrong...

[@stewartmacdonald601]

Response... Yep. New wheels instead of Refurb / colour change = check Ditchfinders = check Load rating = unconfirmed. I’m sure you mentioned the van was T32, so still under regulation if so. But I can’t remember, so 2 out of 3 ain’t bad. Possibly 3/3...

[@SteveField]

2 out of 3. 😆. And you are correct it is a T32 so if the van was to be using full payload then they are not rated high enough. (I am pretty sure there is not a tyre available in a 255/35/20). However, for my own use and the purpose the van is built for it is rated for use. I kept my original stock rims for the off chance I will ever tow something heavy or carry. 👍. The style of the other wheel was just too much for me to keep clean due to the time spent on each wheel.

[@jaywhitney789]

Omg that van 😎😎🤙🤙

[@SteveField]

🙌thanks buddy 😎

[@harrycollins8318]

I thought these wheels where the 19” amarok what load rating are the tyres

They are rated to 102Y. On this profile

[@ogotuwaobuto5366]

Nice wheels, and I understand why you changed them. BUT….. Those Vossens are the dog’s danglies. 😀

[@SteveField]

🙌Thanks buddy. And yes the Vossens are a mint wheel!! I never fell out with the looks only the looking after as it takes so long to detail the properly. 😏. More content with the van coming soon 👍

[@seamanworkshop7568]

Sorry, Can i use the same inch for t5? 20x9 and 20x10? Et? Thanks 😄

[@SteveField]

Are you running air or looking for wheels to tuck?

[@nigelmckie6741]

Hi Steve do you sell the wheels you take off I can’t find any I need help thanks

[@SteveField]

Hi Nigel, I do and I have but I don’t currently have any up for sale. I can recommend any wheels from the Navis collection as they are engineered with the transporter in mind! Check out “Naviswheels”

[@leighfrewin3686]

Great choice Steve, they look mint! How’s the ride on 35s?

[@SteveField]

With Airride it’s amazing!! It’s better than any other option ! The ride height you see in the final montage is the sweet spot and I can cruise all day with the family whilst sipping a Frappuccino 🤣👌👌

[@JosipM333]

Why silver???? On my VW BUS only METALIC GREY or GUNNMETAL GRAY or HIGH GLOSS BLACK.

[@SteveField]

I go Silver for summer because I do run a set of Matt black rims between November and April in some of my other vids you’ll see the black wheels 👍

[@deegsy]

Steve what size tyres you running on the navis so they tuck when aired out?

[@SteveField]

I am running 255/35/20 and they tuck well front & back on these Navis👌👌

Sorry to pee on your bonfire but at 102, those tyres are underrated. You need a minimum of 103 for the T32. You may find your insurance invalid if you needed to make a claim.

Thanks for the info👍. For this reason I am insured with a modified van insurer with a lower rated tyre declared. So long as it’s payload is underweight it’s ok
