VW T3 Rims - Alloy rims and Sizes at a glance

The VW T3 - cult transporter with retro charm

The VW T3 is the third generation of the legendary Volkswagen Van and was produced from 1979 to 1992. Today, it is considered a cult vehicle that is used both as a reliable Van and as a popular Motorhome or leisure vehicle. The T3 stands out from its successors thanks to its angular design and robust rear engine drive. Choosing the right Rims helps to individualise and optimise the driving experience.

Volkswagen offered both Steel rims and light alloy rims for the T3, which were designed for the special requirements of the vehicle. The classic 14-inch Steel rims, which were fitted as standard, are particularly well-known. Later, 15-inch alloy rims were also added, giving the vehicle a slightly more modern look.
