I've never had a measuring instrument but I believe for a Sprinter you're looking at somewhere between 12 to 15 for 6.5" wide rims. For 6" wide rims, something greater of 18 or so and for 7" wide rims, zero offset is ideal.

Not sure about 8" rims as you can hardly find those here.

Anything which has a positive offset of 30 and above is definitely a FWD wheel.

To answer the initial query of this thread (and as Simon said), the best way of finding a suitable alloy is to try the wheels on your car first before buying.

You may come across some which will fit and spin freely but still sit a little inward from the fender:

However, there are rims which are dead giveaways as to whether they fit or not, like the 3 piece Enkei's in the sale section - 30 above positive offset meaning they are FWD wheels. On a Sprinter, did someone mention SPACERS? Rolling Eyes
