AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

If anyone pays you $400 each for a STEEL wheel, then I guess they
deserve the screwing they got, but whoever told you that the steel
wheels are worth $400 each is smokin' some serious crack.

Now the VW Vanagon alloy wheels are nice, but even then $400 each is a
REAL stretch.

Keep in mind that the steel wheels are the same from '71-'91 and you can
probably go to any junkyard and pick some up for $5-$10 each.
