Folks,
On the vanagon.com site it says:

"For off-road driving, a steel wheel will take a beating where an alloy
would deform. Several mailing list users have recommended this tire for
off-road use."

If this is true, what's the point of getting alloy wheels at all, beyond
asthetics?

Most Synchros I've seen on the web seem to have alloys, which would tend to
contradict the quote above.

Anybody else buy the GoWesty alloy wheel and tire package?  I've heard from
only one person who said he bought them (and loves them).

Thanks,

Chris
