Beautiful bus and it sounds great too. I would like to know more about your wheel spacers. I have been thinking of running 5x112 Subaru wheels as well. Do you have any advice or feel that the spacers are not safe?

the subaru wheels are not in 5 x112 , I have 10mm adapter on the front and 15mm on the rear, no probleme for the moment...

I ll more safe if I have porsche wheels !!!, but BBS LM in 17" have 10mm offset

not good for my bus, and I didn t want to fit 18" wheel, perhaps a set of RH turbo twist in 17 ...
