Anyone? I "think" the ET on these is 45, which means you will need spacers, if that's the way you want to go. OE/stock ET is 30 for Vanagon. I don't know anything about the tires, but unless they are a very robust sidewall (like Nokian's have proven to be) a 60 aspect ratio for sidewall can turn out to be risky for our heavier Vanagons and increase the rist of pinch flats, if you unexpectedly hit road debris. bob-no guru anything
