VW made 16" wheels for our Vanagons. I have them for sale at http://www.fastforward.ca - this fall I will also be stocking some 16 x 6.0 ET 30 900kg load rating steel wheels as well - these are Eurovan wheels that the manufacture is making a run for me with a custom offset. I will also be getting some 15 x 6.0 ET 30 steels again with 900kg load rating in stock in about 4 weeks time.

After looking at our bus, we're just not comfortable with gaudy looking wheels, but are still compelled to get the handling characteristics from 16" rims. There must be a way! Does anybody know what rims we could use off of other cars that are 16" without adapters and messing around too much? Like off a Passat, or an audi, or something?
