Howdy Folks, I currently have the stock 14" rims, but am debating going to 15" rims for my next set of tires. I was thinking of plain steel rims at this point. I have a couple of questions for those who've already gone that way. A.) Are there any issues fitting a spare in the stock spare storage area under the front end of the van?? B.) Do any of the old VW steel hubcaps fit any of these rims. If so which rims, & which caps. If not what's out there to use instead of them?? If there are any other considerations or concerns regarding this feel free to let me know. I have a fair bit of time before this becomes an issue, but am too far behind on my procrastinating to put off learning a bit about this. Thanks for your time. Tromper -1982 TD |
