Yes, 5 x 112mm is correct. Look for an offset around
or less than 30mm so you don't need spacers. The
center bore also needs to be at least 66mm to clear
the hubs front and rear on a standard 2WD van.

Some Audi, Vw and MBenz models use the same bolt
circle, but the offset is usually higher. The VW and
Audi rims require the center bore to be opened up,
while the MBenz wheels and most aftermarket wheels
already have the 66mm center bore.

I found a set of MBenz/BBS wheels that I adapted for
use on my van, please check my website for more info
and photos.

Good luck,
