Update:
New Wheels Hopes On The Horizon?..
We're at our wits end when I had a brain storm and though about getting a set of steel wheels off another car/truck etc. Searching sites like stockwheel.com and using the info from wheel-size, tacomaworld and many others.. I found that the 2000 Ford Taurus has 16x6.5 alloy wheels with a center bore of 63.4 and an offset of 39mm.
The offset is what concerns me.. but after entering this data into the calculations system via wheel-size.com.. I found that it clears everything yet the wheel/tire will stick out approx 9mm farther. Which in this case can be a good thing.. Reasoning.. is that our van (all Transit Connect) are top heavy (prone to side tip over) with the offset of 39mm.. this will give the van a better stance (surefooted) yeah us.
Although I don't like the wheel's design and I wish that it was in a 17'' size.. It comes in two color options: Painted Silver & Painted Argent w/ machined face. After all it is a find and we'll see if it fits. Once and for all we'll finally have something on the van other than these crappy steel wheels and plastic hub caps..
Other than the color of the wheel.. could this be the future of our Van?. Now the question is.. do we get them powder coated Magnesium Blue as we had intended.. or something different..
