One of the main reasons is upgrading to larger tires. The factory space for the spare tire underneath the van may not accommodate a bigger wheel, so you'll need an alternative location.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdditionally, moving the spare tire frees up valuable space under the van for water tanks or auxiliary fuel tanks. In off-road situations or difficult terrain, accessing a spare tire mounted underneath can be challenging. Having it on a tire carrier makes it far more accessible when you need it most.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSequoia Tire Carrier installation requirements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/dutchvanparts.com\/product\/rear-exterior-package-deal-sprinter-2018\/\"\u003e270-degree doors\u003c\/a\u003e:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e You will need to replace the 270-degree hinges with 180-degree hinges.

For OEM 16” steel rims, we offer steel wheel bolts with a rounded contact surface. Most aftermarket alloy wheels, however, typically require 60-degree conical bolts (M14x1.5), which you can also select. However, these wheel bolts are not suitable for original (OEM) alloy wheels of the Volkswagen Crafter 2nd generation (2017+) and Man TGE.
