Have you used the audi turbo wheels on a Vanagon?? I think not. I have, and so have countless others without a problem aside from machining the centers..35,45..makes no difference. this thread has been thru the wringer soo many times, and if there was some safety hazard in running these wheels (which they're isnt) then it woulda come up already. what is the offset of MB wheels? how about any other aftmkt brand?
