How much would they be? $75 each? Close?  Any = ideas?
 
Do Eurovan wheels work on 2WD Vanagons?  I know they work on Syncros.

I have been talking to a supplier of mine who imports alot of other = Mangels rims for Jettas, Audis, etc. to see if they would be willing to import some = for the Vanagon/Bus.  They said that they spoke to the Mangels rep and = the minimum order for these rims would be 200 rims which my supplier = couldn't handle.  They didn't feel that they could move that many rims for = the Vanagon and I would agree.  This is a large investment in not = only money, also shipping costs, and warehouse space.  I have had 40 rims = here at one time before and with all of our other parts it was tight.  Even = with stacking 200 rims would fill a good sized room.  Just FYI. =  If we could get three or four parts vendors together and split up the order = that might be an idea, or if I could get 50 people to place an order for = these rims with shipping and credit card info, I am sure that might convince the distributor that they would be worth bringing in.  Just sharing = my thoughts.  Usually at this stage alot of people chime in that = they would be interested in buying something, and then when you actually get the = item they either don't have any money, or they have changed their mind, = etc.  That is why I would want credit card info and shipping info = before we went any further.  Just thinking out loud.  Not committing = to any list purchase or anything.
