Does anyone have a list of rims (wheels), by make/model, that will work on the vanagon? I've read the Ultimate Wheel Post (parts 1/2) but am unsure if everything that fits those standards will just work.

I'd like to upgrade to 16" wheels on my vanagon but gowesty is a bit more then I can afford at the moment.

Cheers, Harry
