Ah, Ben Tan... AKA: "Vanagon Wheel Master" (said with samurai accent). He does love his Vanagon bling! BenT, when you going to setup a T3 with 12" wide wheels and hydraulics??

Those wheels are typically 16 X 8" with an ET62 offset. For an 8" wide wheel to clear up front inner edge, you need about ET20. Even then the wheel will protrude about an inch past the wheel arches. The 255/65/16 tires that they usually come with will not fit an unmodified 2wd. 215-225/55/16 tires can make them work. > > BenT > > > > > Sent via BenTberry by BenTNT
