235 is generally the widest I would go, not heard anyone running 255 before. You will have issues with the sliding door I would think.

I will give it a try tomorrow, i will let you know what happens.
Read somewhere that you can shim the sliding door a couple of millimeters.
Rims are 8 inch wide with 35 mill. backspace.

Refit the deadlock on my new (to me) ex BG van. Owner had lost the key but after seeing some sound advice on here I found a spare under the fuse box in the engine bay. Nice one 🤙
