Here is an option you might want to consider.....if you can find them. Haven't seen this on SAMBA. These are Fitipaldi aftermarket wheels I got at a Mercedes parts yard off of a circa 1980's Mercedes 300TD Wagon. ET 25, same lug bolt seat as OEM. Bolted straight on. Paired with 215 70R 15 tires. Speedo is off by 2 or 3 mph and I'm spending a bit more time in 3rd gear on uphills, but well worth the tradeoff. https://picasaweb.google.com/108373760773472517099/Van Rick 91 Westy
