    A touch of Audi for the t4

    With winter hopefully drawing to a close I have refurbed and fitted 225/55/17 101w Michelin primacy to my old mk1 rs4 reps and bolted them to the t4.

    Manners maketh the man, wheels makthe the van!

      cheers

      Colour coding of bumpers is next when weather improves and maybe a little lowering. Not too much though as it is a work horse load lugger

        make sure you soak the torsion beam bolts a week in advance.
        from experience by the proper load rated rear springs. cheap ones just end up squashed and riding on bump stops. you probably know this already but i have lowered a few vans and one mate learned the hard way about what a false economy the cheap ones were.

            Looks good but as you say it needs a touch of the lowering stick. I'm doing mine soon (read when I can be bothered to crawl under my old van to pull them off and shove them on my other one)

                    Would really consider a T4 as a second Vehicle or possible replacement.

                    I do alot of fishing, biking and camping and having one of these would make doing any of those things so much easier!

                    The Van looks great on the wheels!
