They look pretty hefty. Has it affected your insurance premium at all? Some companies are quite happy to accept modifications as long as they are listed on the policy but others will refuse to cover anything as significant like different make/size/offset wheels.

I like them, what width tyres are on there I want to fit 235/55/18 but not sure if they will clear the struts. Anyone got them on already?

Ohhhhh yes, I like those. I've always liked the idea of meaty wheels on a Bongo. 8)
