Hello Folks, More stuff to clear out. The aforementioned wheels are ET51 which will require thick bolt on spacers to use on your Vanagon. These are the forged version of those found large S-class sedans in the early 90's. They look like the type GoWesty sells but forged instead of cast. It's got more of a polished finish instead of cheap paint. There are tires but only two are usable. One used to the spare. Like an idiot, I paid $360 for these in eBay during my alternative wheel experiments in late 1999. Time to say goodbye. Pick-up in So. SF preferred. What a deal at $150 for four wheels. Have some CLK 16" forged alloys too with some curb rash. Have tires but I consider them throw-aways. Minor lughole enlargement and BAmM! You got wheels. $300 for four wheels.
