the alloy is 10/11 years old, think about car alloy wheels and the state they would be in. ou should be okay with a refurb but make sure they smooth the beads where pitting can occur and give them a good laquer

+1. Make sure the inside well of the wheel is fully refinished too, as alloys can be porous, hence your leaks

An 85Ah battery will be fine unless you need to move the van large distances.
I have used mine with a small jump pack with a sub 18Ah battery. Last time i used the jump pack on the mover the battery was approx 8 years old. so due for replacement.
Had no issues moving the van.
