I am not running Pzwo wheels, but a Ronal wheel, its a 7 spoke, like on the
Audi A4's.
It's a 16 x 7.5 with a 20ET, and right now shodded with 225/50VR16 rubber.
For those who want a sporty van, you gotta put at least 16's on your van, it
does WONDERS for the handling. Next set I am trying some 235/50's to see if
I can go any faster in the corners...LOL.

Keith,
No Projektzwo wheels - but I've just installed a set of Australian
"Performance Wheelsa" - 7x15". They were $185AUD each.
Tyres chosen were BF Goodrich Fairways - 205 x 65 x 15"

I generally drive with an empty car - so I'm not too concerned on the load
rating however both wheels and tyres are up to the required weight ratings.

The combination has been excellent and the wheels look fantastic - though
initially I had problems finding alloy wheels to fit the VW.
Transformed the handling to 'not quite pin-point accuracy'  -but hey -
we're getting there.
Good part about the combination is that comfort has not been at all
compromised. Stability at highway cruising in cross winds has also been
made that much better.

No complaints here.

Anyone running 7x15 Pzwo wheels on their van?  Anyone know how much they
cost?

Curious.
