Shawn, The rims were adverised as a winter wheels for various models. I belive they were intended both 12mm & 14mm lughole cars thus the no mods needed for Vanagon use. I gt a set on one of my vans. Offset is ET25. Works great with newer VW 15" hubcaps. You can use stock Vanagon hardware to attach the wheels.
