Van Caf� has 15" and 16" steel wheels and packages.  Soon the 15" tire will
start disappearing!

Subject: feedback on 15 inch wheel options

Does anyone have any feedback on the 15 inch alloys sold by gowesty and
volks-cafe?  Here:

Anyone have any photos of these installed on a van?  I wasn't able to locate
any.

Or suggestions on any other 15 inch options?

My goal is to modify as little as possible, and get something that will
handle correctly and be reliable.  (Looks good is a plus).  I want something
that fits in the spare tire carrier, minor modification required to the
carrier is okay with me.

The only reason I want bigger wheels is that Nokian lines in the 14 inch
sizes are dropping like flies.
