It explains the meaning of offset (ET) but then does a poor job of
discussing the issued involved in connection with changing wheel width
and maintaining proper offset. Stock Vanagon wheels used ET39 -ET30,
5.5" -6.5" width. The wheels you are trying to fit are a reasonable
offset but a radical width for the vehicle. In order to accommodate that
width you will have to radically alter the offset with spacers. Just how
radically will depend on the tires. Let us know what you end up with for
tire sizes and spacer thicknesses and whether you can open the sliding
door past the tire.
