Wanted Wanted - Set of four wheels with winter tyres

[Malc24]

Bit early I know but does anyone have some used wheels and winter tyres for sale that are correctly rated to fit a T7 Cali Ocean?
Alternatively, can anyone recommend a supplier please.
I have the 18 inch VW diamond cut alloys which may not survive the winter well.

Thanks but apparently these won’t fit the T7.

No worries,

Had no idea vw had changed the bolt layout for the T7

Best of luck, I guess that severely limits your options.

The bolt pattern is exactly the same 5x120
And centre bore 65.1mm

It’s the ET. And J of wheel.
If you use 6.1 wheels the ET is 35 and the wheel sticks out and the back sliding doors don’t open.

So need 7.5J x 18” ET60

Check the website willtheyfit
And you’ll see the massive 30mm difference of them sticking out. 6.1 compared to t7 wheels.
I went down the rabbit hole.
Not pretty.

Only option is a set of Cross Climate or a set of full fat winters.
And then swap to summers in April :/
A new set of t7 wheels are really expensive.
Could try elite wheel and look for wheels for multivan.
Not sure about load rating though ?

I think the OP is trying to keep the diamond turn set he has in the best condition, for as long as possible by avoiding winter use.

using a set of diamond turned wheels in winter whilst salt on the roads just simply wrecks them in super fast time.

Changing winter / summer tyres on the same rims increases the potential for damage and does not limit the salt exposure to the diamond turned wheels.

Looks like the only option is shell out for a new set of winter wheels & tyres

Hi, I have some VW 18" Dakar wheels off my California that I am about to sell if you are interested?
These will make an excellent winter set of wheels. They are straight, never been welded or refurbished.
I'm down in Fleet, Hampshire if interested

Thanks but T6 wheels don’t fit the T7.
