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.
