Biggest wheels?

[outriding]

What the biggest size wheels that you can fit on a bedford without having to modify the arches?

Anyway, I found this van with 20" wheels... excessive?

They are nice, but just not on a beddy, to me they just dont suit, would i take them if given, yep sell them for some that suits. lol

I have a set of Chev wheels with 235x60x16 tyres. They are going on my Beddie, and I don't think I will need to modify the arches.
 But a lot depends on how much offset your new wheels have.

You might have a bit of fun with the 16 x 60's in the front Jeff. I've got some 15 x 50's for the front of mine. Admittedly they are 245's but it's pretty close.

Thanks Rogue. If I need to modify the arches,   I will. But there is not too much offset so I might be lucky.

I have 15" on the back (camper Bedford) 15x275x60 on the front 14" 14x205x75 and It just makes it.

245x50x15= 24.6" diameter

205x75x14=26.1" dia

195x80x14C=26.3" dia.......Std

235x60x16=27.1" dia

275x60x15=28"  dia

But Bas's are deep dish and he has modified arches. I've measured mine up and it will be close.

If the van doesnt have a flare kit I think it actually looks good with modern large rims and low profile tires.

I found this pic, dont know what size it is, 18" maybe?

255 x 40 x 18 is just about the same diameter as the stock wheels...
