Hi we have a Weinsberg Edition Pepper with 15 inch wheels fitted, the tyres are due for a change this next season and we want to upgrade to the 16 inch alloy's fitted as an extra. Theis wheel see photo is fitted to many types of Fiat/Peugeot based motorhomes. Does anyone know who sells them?
I intend to fit Michelins on these. And know where I can get the tyres but not the rims. I know there are other after market rims but would like to keep standard.

They may make you speedo more accurate but more worrying it could under read. Not only are the wheels bigger but the tyres are a higher profile adding quite a bit to the rolling distance per revolution.

I would also have a look at Continental Vanco Tyres -- Having tried both I wouldn't choose Michelin again,
Yep Michelin's are diabolical compared to the Conti's but wouldn't fit camping tyres again glad to have got rid of mine 3 years of hell on wheels.

Hi all sorry for starting a debate over wheels and tyres, did not want to, The vehicle is quite capable of taking the 16 inch wheels and tyres as they already as stated an extra and with the 15 inch currently fitted the speedo reads faster than actual when making comparisons with a friend who has 16 inch fitted and checks against sat nav. The Tyres currently fitted ar Continentals and I am not impressed, cracking in the tyread area and over pressure when hot. I would not consider fitting any tyres other than motor home (camper) type due to loading and speed ratings. Only advice I asked was for a possible supplier of the wheels. Debate ends

Are you you on a light chassis or a heavy chassis.

The wheel have different pcd on each

I recently changed my light chassis wheels to 16" and did a lot of research before buying the wheels to ensure that they were of the correct weight rating and width/offset

Remember that you'll get a good price for your current wheels, alternatively you could donate them to your bestest friend. Hello bestest friend! :dance2:::bigsmile:

The heavy chassis has 16" wheels as standard.

You don‘t have to use camper tyres because of the ratings you can get van tyres with the same rating and 10ply.

Only from Fiat professional as far as I know. Direct or through MH dealer. Expect to pay at least a grand
