hi all, just been told a tyre on my old sterling Europa 520NT (1998) was flat when stored over winter and has perished / ripped - I have no way of getting tyre sizes for this van without going down to the site and checking, then chancing I can't get it fixed on the day .. I intend to buy an old replacement off ebay as a temp measure in order to move the van the short distance from storage to site, then get the original wheel / tyre renewed in my own time.   I wondered if anyone can tell me the size of the wheels on this type of single axle van? (I don't have the manual)
thanks in advance

If nobody knows for definite I can say that likely wheel size for caravan of this age with Alko chassis will be 13inch wheel with 4 stud 100mm pcd(ie 100mm diagonally across stud hole centres)This is standard caravan wheel size for Alko chassis of this age.

Tyres size will most likely be 165/80X13 or 175/80X13. If you are only moving 'van a short distance then either size will do the job.
