Van Café has 15" and 16" steel wheels and packages. Soon the 15" tire will start disappearing! http://www.van-cafe.com/home/van/smartlist_550/rims_and_wheels.html

Does anyone have any feedback on the 15 inch alloys sold by gowesty and volks-cafe? Here: http://www.van-cafe.com/home/van/page_572_341/european-look_alloy_15_x_7.htm l Anyone have any photos of these installed on a van? I wasn't able to locate any.

Or suggestions on any other 15 inch options?

My goal is to modify as little as possible, and get something that will handle correctly and be reliable. (Looks good is a plus). I want something that fits in the spare tire carrier, minor modification required to the carrier is okay with me.

The only reason I want bigger wheels is that Nokian lines in the 14 inch sizes are dropping like flies.
