Thanks for the quick reply.
I've read as much as I can take in from those sources.
I was wondering about the load bearing capacity as well as general fit. These seem to be within the guidelines from the Brickyard.
These alloys appear frequently from golfs MK4.

Alloys?

Hi All
I have the chance to buy VW alloys. These are given as:
6J x 15 ET 38.
Can anyone out there tell me if they will fit and what I need to do to get them on my van?
Cheers
