The ideal offset is usually 30mm. for the Mercedes Wheels go for the 20 and
be aware that wide tires may be too close to the sliding door. The 38+
offset may require spacers with the longer studs/bolts etc.

Some Mercedes wheels are perfect fit.  Some members can tell which offset is
the right one.  They are nicer, better and cheaper.

Subject: Wanted: 16" Rims

Hello All,
I am in the market for a set of 4 or preferably 5 16" rims to upgrade my
1989 2wd Westy. I'd like to go with rims that will fit without needing any
spacers. If anyone has any available please pmail me at fiedlerac@gmail.com.
I am in the Colorado Springs, CO area.
Thanks.
Andre Fiedler
