Listers: I own an A4 and a Vanagon, and I may have an interesting source of wheels for you. Clair is selling A6 15" alloys for A4s, with all season tires, cheap. I got mine (for A4) for $125 each. Follow the link to "Free Tires for A4"

http://www.clair.com/clair.html

I don't know for certain that they will fit the Vanagon, but with the recent discussion, I intend to find out.

Alan.
