[200q20v] 8x17" V8 BBS wheels on the 200q20v avant (UFO brakes)?

[Peer Oliver Schmidt (the internet company)]

The 16" (441 601 025 K) V8 rims where the official option, but edgar
tells me, there is a 17" rim available (441 601 025 AA). edgar does not
show the rim in the picture though.

Peer:

I was under the impression that the V8 BBS rims were 16 x 8 inches...

I'm still trying to decide between 16 or 17 inch rims for my wagon, but
it's hard to give up the light weight forged 15 inch BBS stock rims.
The
weight difference between the summer tires/BBS rims and my 16 inch steel
rims/Dunlop Graspics was noticeable when I swapped them!

I do have two things against the stock rims ...they are a major PITA to
keep clean and there are not alot of tire options...
