Re: E250 Conversion Van

Got the new tires installed this morning. Went from 225/75/16 to 245/75/16, not much bigger but definitely better looking!! I picked up Kumho Road Venture A/T's, I drive on gravel roads a few times a week so just wanted something a little better for dirt roads and something that would fill up the wheel wells better!

Heres Before and after.
225/75/16


245/75/16




Not a huge difference, but I definitely think the new tires fit the van better and make it look larger!

Re: E250 Conversion Van

I plan on doing a 2" lift front and back, locker in the rear, roof rack w/awning, light bar up front (would love a new bumper Aluminess!).... and a few other things! Will keep posting as upgrades happen.

Re: E250 Conversion Van

Thanks for posting the tire pics. I'm thinking of moving to 245s myself (started a separate thread) and it's great to see side by side comparison pics of how they look.

No problem. I really like the look of the 245's, gives a little extra clearance without sacrificing to much gas mileage!

Re: E250 Conversion Van

Finished up the drawers in the back. Happy with the end results, tried to make them look like they were made that way from the factory. Also built an extra shelf that I can add in when the drawers are extended.
