<font size=3>For in depth reading on wheel topics, including 15"
wheels and wheels from GoWesty and other vendors, and tire choices for
large size wheels, and optimal wheel specs, see the following: <br>

</a>Don't be put off by the introduction. I think the GoWesty wheels are
addressed about 2/3rds down. But the real meat of the article of the
discussion of specs and their importance.<br>

GVW-8525 (Enter this p/n in the search box on the GoWesty.com site)<br>
<br>
They resemble the Mercedes OEM 8-hole alloys, but they say 15x7.<br>
<br>
Anyone know the offset and load specs for this wheel? Who is the<br>
manufacturer? Spacers required? Bolt-on?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
