If youre happy with them and maybe they were cheap...then its up to you, but if youre in any doubt pass them on..i dont think it would be worth getting them bored unless theyre real beaut's....plenty of wheels out there.
Cheers for the advise mate. Have just shifted them on again. So back to the hunt for wheels.........again...........

I'm in the same situation as plague here...couldn't tell night i tried them on but checked properly now and it doesn't look good think I'll be selling them and getting a set that fits
Another good spot to catch some nice oldschool rims and a lot of the new wave sets --->Wheel Whores ~ View Forum - UK (check the 19" Maybach's on the golf...with a slight mod they would have looked awesome!)
Many thanks, this is great. I am just wanting a standard set of 17 inch. Do not want to buy new as I drive like a mong and will end up curbing them in the first five mins.
no probs man. Hope you find what you're looking for.
I finally got my hands on these beauties below . 18" and 8.5J wide with an offset of 44 so should go straight on without any issues. Less work means they'll end up going on the v-class a lot quicker. Can't wait!
i had the pleasure of seeing stoneboy's van in the flesh today. those wheels look sweet as.
has your van been lowered dude? and if so, where did you get it done?
the wheels you have fit the arches perfectly and don't look too 'bling'. i'd like a set
in case you're wondering, i was the dude with the all-black lid, cb500, newport road earlier. i gave that z3 a little drag race; you were a little late on the brakes behind me coming off rumney roundabout

Haha... yeah I saw ya.
It is lowered; H&R springs on the front dropping it 40mm. The previous owner (Ian/zenman63) fitted them, or got them fitted.
The rear is lowered an unknown amount, but I'd guess about 20 - 30mm. It's got air suspension so is lowered by means of the adjustable sensor rods. Ian gave me these so they may be H&R too.
Don't know exactly how much they lowered it as I didn't measure before and after I fitted them. Because of where they are situated, the rods are only actually about 8mm shorter than the originals.
I didn't actually like the wheels that much and was planning on changing them when I bought the van. Was short of cash so decided to wait a bit and they have really grown on me. I think I'd choose them over any others now. They don't make them any more so I think you'll have a hard time finding some.

your motor has real presence, especially with the front spoiler. i pretty much clocked your van straight away.
the wheels can wait - it's trying to find someone who will supply and fit the lowering springs that is doing my nut in!
for a moment there i thought you were going to say your wheels were for sale
