All depends what you need the van for? I've had 18 and now 19s. Both work fine

Not sure on the standard steels but on an 8.5" wheel it's about et48. That's what I'm running on my 19" BBS CH-Rs.

I have just ordered some BBS CH-R 18" after seeing dan@biali wheels. They are 8.5 et 47. I chose 18" after reading on here they were more forgiving comfort wise than 19".

Haven't been on in a while
Ended up getting 18" very happy with them, when driving the nuts out of it it's a bit harder on fuel and hasn't the full belt of power as it had on standard wheels but nothing worth talking about
