damn, i want those wheels.  does anyone in the denver/boulder area want
to buy a set of bfg at's on 14" steel?  four tires have ~5000 mi on
them, one has 0.  i'm not ready to sell, but i'm curious if i could get
back some (most?) of my investment.  these tires go for ~$110 each,
iirc.  i'll even throw in some brand new, sharp-looking mercedes style
hubcaps that WON'T STAY ON.

btw, my "gutachten" comments were sarcastic.  what's a "gutachten"?

oh good!  a gutachten.  it's hard to get by without one of those. 

that's a sweet looking wheel, with or without gutachtens.

if i didn't have brand new 14" bfg at's, i might consider.

Hey all,

We're bringing in a new alloy wheel from Germany.  It's a direct bolt on
for the Vanagon and Syncro (even comes with a Gutachten if you'd like).

15" x 7" with an ET25

Pictures can be viewed here:

I should have pictures of these wheels, with tires, on a Vanagon later
this week.

Price will be somewhere in the $120/each range and comes with lug nuts &
bolts.

If anyone is interested, let me know.

Cheers,

Jeff
