<< Check the ET number stamped into the rims. Vanagon wheels have ET38 for narrow tires and down to ET23 for wider tires. There are modifications needed to Audi wheels to put them on Vanagons even ignoring the tire interference issue. This is not something for most people to do on their own. >>

actually the A8 16" alloys are et37......the A4 16" are et45. the A8 wheel being the better of the two (if you can actually find some!! :<) but both will work. fyi, theres a pic of the A4/A8 style 5 spoke 16" alloys on a vanagon on my website..

<<Check Michael Sullivan's web site for more info on this subject.>>

D'oh.. i think we all know his take on this already....
