Listees...
I've seen lots of postings re:wheels and tires, alloy wheels, different size
tires, etc.  Excuse my ignorance, but I have a few basic Questions:
What is the advantage of going to a 15" rim?  Isn't there a disadvantage to
changing overall tire diameter, in terms of ride, handling, speedon and
odometer readings?  Won't the van have to work harder to turn the larger
wheels, especially from a stop?  Obviously, there must be a percieved
advantage to going with different wheels/rims.  Is it aesthetics alone, or
am I missing something?  I would think it would be easy to find some 15"
wheels (either the Passat or Jeep Wrangler rims), and an appropriate set of
tires.  But, I need to know why I should change the setup I have (Standard
wheels and tires).
Thanks...John
