The tyres are VERY quiet... due to lockdown...haven't driven the van for quite a while !!! so I'll report back when I'm able to go more than 10kms from home. I've done more kms on my new e-bike than in the van !!!!!
The original tyres (one brand new and four with about 150 kilometres on them) are for sale... $100 each, pickup in metro Melbourne.

Hey @Tig-uan for example 75mm Lifts Now Legal In NSW | Loaded 4X4 makes reference to the rules. Sorry haven't looked closely for a while. Maybe I got my math wrong and 235/65/17 + a 2 inch lift would be ok

50mm suspension lift plus 25mm tyre lift

Can’t both be 50mm

I think this is the important bit :
Modifications to the ride height up to 75mm that incorporate a maximum change in the suspension of 50mm, and/or an increase in the diameter of the wheel and tyre combination of up to 50mm
From here
Can someone confirm the standard raised king springs are 2 inch / 50mm?
Then the king springs, which another thread suggests work with factory shocks, as well as 235 65 17, which fit deflated in the spare wheel well, seems the cheapest legal path to go down, or up per se, and is what I've been planning to do. Maybe air suspension one day would be nice though if I can justify the cost.

I reckon the best way to go is to increase tyre size to 60 profile, rather than the much larger 65 profile - ie 235/60/17
• fits in spare well inflated
• speedo is pretty much bang on accurate (over-reads just slightly).
Am currently running cooper AT’s in this size and they should last long time (especially compared to the Yokohama’s that I was using).VW Transporter MY10 132kw BiT LWB 4Motion DiffLock
