Subject:Vanagon Alloys (syncro/std?)
From:Otmar Ebenhoech

Hello List,

I have a possibility of buying some alloy wheels like the ones on newer
vanagons. 5 spoke, 14 X 6 I think.

I'm wondering a few things about them.
1) Are they forged? (therefore strong enough for off road on a overloaded
stretch?)
2) Are they the same as on syncros?
3) Will the standard ones fit synchros?

TIA
