In a message dated 97-04-03 11:30:05 EST, you write:

<< Front wheel drives tend to run a large offset in order to make the
half-shafts as long as 
 possible to minimize angular deflections. >>

the only question I had was about the 7J. 
Audi 5000 TURBO wheels AND Vanagon Carat Alloy wheels are both 6J.
The new Audi "A series" wheel is a 7J.

Remember - the Audi 5000 TURBO wheel WILL fit a Vanagon (done the conversion
already, per previous thread(s)

But is the difference between 6J and 7J really significant?

and what does the "J" refer to anyway?
(or did you explain that before..)
