Volkswagen Transporter Tyres

The Volkswagen Transporter meets most commercial and private transportation requirements. As such, Volkswagen Transporter tyres must be chosen based on the intended load and purpose of the vehicle. Tyres that offer reliable grip and support for directional braking are required for numerous stops in town, cross-country or motorway trips and the varying weather conditions in the UK. Reducing stress caused by a long day at work can be achieved through a combination of comfort, low road noise and rolling efficiency.

Because of its flexibility, there are many Volkswagen Transporter derivatives. One size tyre is therefore insufficient for all variants of the Volkswagen Transporter. The fitment Volkswagen Transporter tyres should ideally have, is the load index and speed rating as recommended for the individual vehicle. The sidewall of the tyre and/or the vehicle handbook and/or the registration details confirm the correct fitment for the Volkswagen Transporter.

To buy Volkswagen Transporter tyres, Tyres.co.uk is a good purchasing platform as it offers the service of booking a tyre fitting. Our retail offerings provide a comparison of prices, performance and brands, which makes a choice easier for the consumer.

Kumho Ecsta PS71
Tyre review for Kumho Ecsta PS71 255/40R17
5.00/5
Initially, the tyres were fitted during pleasant weather, and they impressed us with their grip and silence. They were much better than the cheap ones we had before. Now, with the cold snap, they are also handling brilliantly with ice, so we look forward to seeing how they will do when the snow comes.

The tyres provide excellent grip which instills me with confidence managing corners and driving in wet conditions - a must in Scotland!

On par with more expensive brands.

Enhanced grip on wet surfaces and they are quiet.

Tyre review for Kumho Ecsta PS71 225/35R20
5.00/5
Great traction on wet and dry surfaces and the tread holds up well. They could be slightly noisier than the Pirelli ones I had before, though the better performance compensates for that.

Avon ZX7
Tyre review for Avon ZX7 245/45R19
3.00/5
As the fitter stated, the Avons began to crack at the bottom of the grooves at about 15,000 miles, despite having plenty of tread. I have now returned to Michelin Crossclimate 2, which I was unable to obtain previously.

Works well, but is rather noisy on most roads.

I have no complaints about the tyres, they are meeting expectations. Seems like the same tyres as the Continentals I had before.

Good tyres that seem to be wearing well and are fairly quiet on the road.

Michelin Agilis CrossClimate
Tyre review for Michelin Agilis CrossClimate 215/75R16
5.00/5
Generally good performance with a strong grip in wet and dry conditions. Winter weather performance is far superior to that of summer tyres.
Gabriel Stocker
Tyre review for Michelin Agilis CrossClimate 225/70R15
5.00/5
I have yet to test them in conditions that require additional grip. Nonetheless, the grip design provides a more comfortable and quieter ride.
Jenna S.
Tyre review for Michelin Agilis CrossClimate 235/65R16
5.00/5
I bought these for the second time because the first set lasted my car 4 years and 45,000 miles. They are quite and very good on countryside paths, Cornish lanes, and wet muddy fields. I've never been left stranded or lost traction. Very happy.

Tyre review for Michelin Agilis CrossClimate 225/75R16

Minimal noise from the road. Outstanding traction in the rain.

They are fitted on a van that is regularly loaded to full capacity and they handle corners, brakes and overall control extremely well.

Buying and Fitting Volkswagen Transporter Tyres: FAQ

Tyres.co.uk carries Michelin Agilis 3 and Pirelli Carrier All Season in the Volkswagen Transporter’s factory approved size 215/65 R16C. This size fits 6.1 Transporter models, too. Check your registration and door placard because wheel configurations differ, and you must meet the requirements for the associated commercial construction, load index, and speed rating.

To find the tyre sizes for the Volkswagen Transporters T6 and T6.1, look at the tyre pressure placard on the driver's side door of the front lock pillar. The placard shows the approved size and pressure for varying loads. You will have to use this placard and the tyre sidewall to check for the specifications for the registration.

The Volkswagen Transporter will not necessarily require four replacement tyres, but the handbook states that they all must be radial tyres of the same type. This same requirement applies to 4MOTION. If a matching pair can't be retained, then all four must be replaced. When replacing one axle, fit the new pair to the rear axle.
