Well there you go.  You can carry a FUNDO load of stuff! :-)


I'm using 16'' Mercedes CLK wheels on my Westy.  These wheels are not only
lighter than the stock tiny steel hoops but are also forged unlike many
other OEM offerings.  Ride is better, handling is better, and stopping is
shorter over 185R14 tires.

Perhaps to answer your question you would be better off looking here:
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=203519  .  People have
posted their experiences, good and bad, with different types of wheels on
their Vanagons.
