Single 17 x 7.5" wheel. Hardware sold separately.

These GoWesty wheels are based on the original VW German-made 14" x 6” aluminum alloy wheel that was a factory option for the Vanagon. After years of requests from the community, we are thrilled to offer these superb quality, high-pressure die cast (HPDC) aluminum alloy wheels for your Eurovan and Vanagon Syncro.

We reproduced every detail of this iconic design, right down to the original Volkswagen Diamond Metallic Silver (L97A) paint code! They have the correct bolt pattern and 38mm offset (“ET”) to mount without any modifications to your Eurovan, and they are properly load-rated at over 1800 lbs each—more than enough to handle the most heavily loaded vehicle.

Simply put: The same iconic design, but scaled up in sizes to accept readily available, modern, and more cost-effective tire sizes!

Fits: All 1993-03 Eurovan models, and 1986-91 Vanagon 4WD Syncro

*Mounting hardware note :
This wheel is sold without hardware. Please purchase wheel hardware separately, or opt for our complete wheel set which includes hardware.

Recommended tire sizes:
• Vanagon Syncro - 235/65-17
• Eurovan - 235/55-17XL

Torque specs: Please torque the fasteners to 95 ft-lbs.

Wheel weight: 24.5lb

Spare wheel and tire options for Vanagon Syncro:

1) Continue to use your existing 14” spare wheel and tire—just be sure to use the hardware for that wheel, not the new hardware provided with these wheels. Note: Your original 14” wheel will not fit over our GoWesty Bigger front brakes or our GoWesty rear disc brakes! A 15” wheel or larger is required.

2) Purchase (1) 15x7 wheel and mount a 195/60-15 tire on it—this will fit in your original spare wheel location and fit original or our larger brakes.

3) Purchase (1) extra wheel of the same size you are installing on the vehicle, mount the same size tire on it, and carry it on the rear with one of our Universal Carriers! Note: This is the only option if you have a Syncro without a driveshaft decoupler, in which case all four tires on the ground must be close to the same diameter to avoid binding and potential transaxle damage.
