Volks,

This from my friend Nils, who is not a Vanagon gear-head, but you can tell
he's done an admirable job of translation -- at least, it makes sense to me!

Chris,
I know nothing about rims, so here is the fairly direct translation...
;)
Nils

The specifications are 7.5X16 and 9X16, 7.5 or 8.5X17 and 10X17 or
8.5X18 and 10X18
there aren't many rim types/brands to choose between and most aren't
delivered/made long enough.  It may work but this is not how many will
sell.  You can also find adaptors such that you can use for example a
Porsche rim, as these are popular over all of the CUP rims.  Adaptors
are found in different thicknesses and threading.  On 7.5 and 9x17 of
the Porsche made ones, it is typical to use about 30mm back and 25mm
thick to get the right fitting.

Fine sett er 7.5X16 og 9X16, 7.5 eller 8.5X17 og 10X17 eller 8.5X18 og
10X18
det er ikke mange felg merker � velge mellom da de fleste ikke leveres
lenge. Kun brukt men det er ikke mange som vil selge. Det finnes ogs�
adapter slik at du kan bruke for eksempel Porsche felger, det som der er
popul�rt er alle disse CUP felgene. Adaptere finnes i forskjellige
tykkelser
og boltsirkler. P� 7.5 og 9 X 17 av Porsche fabrikat s� bruker man rundt
30mm bak og 25mm tykke for � f� det riktige utseende.
